Macroscelides rozeti; Print; The North African elephant shrew or North African sengi (Petrosaltator rozeti) is a species of elephant shrew in the family Macroscelididae. It is found in Algeria; Libya; Morocco; and Tunisia; and is the only extant afrotherian within its range. Recent phylogenetic analyses suggest that its status as the only extant member of its order north of the Sahara has resulted in a genetic split from the other Macroscelididae species. This split likely occurred during the Miocene period. In 2016; John Dumbacher and colleagues created a new genus; Petrosaltator; for this species; recombining the scientific name to Petrosaltator rozeti.; 1700-1880
