小鳞尾松鼠属（学名：Idiurus）是啮齿目鳞尾松鼠科的一属，现仅存2种：

• 长耳鳞尾松鼠（Idiurus macrotis）
• 喀麦隆鳞尾松鼠（Idiurus zenkeri）

The flying mice, also known as the pygmy scaly-tails, pygmy scaly-tailed flying squirrels, or pygmy anomalures are not mice, not squirrels, and are not capable of true flight. These unusual rodents are essentially miniaturized versions of anomalures and are part of the same sub-Saharan African radiation of gliding mammal.
