Walter Verheyen's African dormouseLuilaka River.[3] Although not found in immediate association, Lorraine's dormouse (Graphiurus lorraineus) and the short-eared African dormouse (Graphiurus surdus) are understood to be "broadly sympatric".[2] Most closely resembling Jentink's dormouse (Graphiurus crassicaudatus), it differs from this species both in its much smaller size and in its relative proportions.[2] On the IUCN Red List, its conservation status has been assessed as Data Deficient.[1]
