Species

Dipus is a genus of jerboa. Today only a single species is usually recognized, the northern three-toed jerboa (Dipus sagitta), widespread throughout Central Asia. Some authors recognize a second species, the Qaidam three-toed jerboa (Dipus deasyi) from the Qaidam Basin of western China.[1] The genus has a fossil record that dates back to the Miocene, with several extinct species known from Asia.[2][3] The oldest dated species is Dipus conditor.
