Ecco quello che so/ho trovato:
Long-eared hedgehog (H. [Hemiechinus] auritus)
Taxonomy: Hemiechinus auritus Gmelin 1770.
(descrizione originale Link )
IUCN Category of Threat: Lower Risk (subcategory Least Concern).
Description: The spines are usually banded with dark brown and white and the underparts are generally whitish. In this genus, the ears are longer and more prominent than in other hedgehogs. Body length is approximately 150-270mm and tail length 10-SOmm. Unlike Erinaceus and Paraechinus, Hemiechinus lacks a median spineless tract on the top of the head.
Distribution: This species occurs from the eastern Mediterranean (north Libya and Egypt, Cyprus, Asia Minor) through south-west Asia (not Saudi Arabia) to the Gobi desert (Mongolia), Xinjiang (China) and northwest India.
Habitat: H. auritus is found in marginal desert regions as well as dry steppes. In Egypt H. auritus is rare in poorly vegetated areas but is commonly found in gardens in association with people (Hoogstraal, 1962).
Ecology and behaviour: Nocturnal, terrestrial and solitary animals. During daylights. auritus seeks refuge in a burrow - they are active diggers (Roberts, 1977) usually under small bushes. In the Punjab of northern India, H. auritus may hibernate up to 3.5 months in winter and, in the mountains of Pakistan, hibernation lasts from October to March (Walker, 1991). In warmer areas there is no prolonged winter hibernation but during periods of food scarcity there may be summer aestivation (Roberts, 1977).

Ecco l'unica foto in cui si intravvede la pancia chiara, certo non nera/scura.
