There are six different species of glider in Australia, and the sugar glider is just one of them. There are not different types of sugar glider. Since sugar gliders have become exotic pets for people overseas (not their native home of Australia, where they are fortunately protected and therefore may not be kept as pets), breeders have begun classing them by colour, including lecustic, ringtail, white tipped, albino, black beauty and white faced blonde. These are not species, however.
Glider species include:
- Sugar glider
- Feathertail glider
- Squirrel glider
- Greater glider
- Mahogany glider
- Yellow-bellied glider
Of these, the largest is the yellow-bellied glider.
