The smallest animal in the order Petaurus, which is an order in the possum family, is the sugar glider (Petaurus breviceps).
It is not the smallest glider: that honour goes to the Feathertail glider, but the Feathertail is in the order Diprotodontia.
The name "Petaurus Breviceps," is the scientific name for the animal sugar glider. "Petaurus" is pronounced "pet-or-us." "Breviceps" is pronounced "breh-vee-seps."
