How much does a Cameroon scaly-tail weight?

It is hard to guess what a Cameroon scaly-tail weights. But we have the answer:

An adult Cameroon scaly-tail (Zenkerella insignis) on average weights 200 grams (0.44 lbs).

The Cameroon scaly-tail is from the family Anomaluridae (genus: Zenkerella). When reaching adult age, they grow up to 9.8 cm (0′ 4″).

As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.

The Cameroon scaly-tail (Zenkerella insignis), also referred to as the Cameroon anomalure, flightless anomalure or flightless scaly-tail, is a rodent species endemic to West Central Africa. The scientific literature has never (or possibly only obscurely) reported observations of live individuals. The taxonomic classification of the species has been subject to recent revision.
