Atelerix is a genus of hedgehog in the family Erinaceidae. It contains four species, all native to Africa.[1]
Species
The Atelerix diversified from its family because of geographical isolation during Pleistocene climate changes. This being a type of vicariance separation from the Niger River. This allowed the Erinaceidane family to be more diverse.
