- Montane long-nosed squirrel (Hyosciurus heinrichi)
- Lowland long-nosed squirrel (Hyosciurus ileile)
The genus name is a combination of Greek Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang"., meaning 'pig', and Script error: No such module "Lang"., meaning 'squirrel', in reference to the snouts which are relatively long compared to other squirrels.
