Central American silky anteater

The Central American silky anteater (Cyclopes dorsalis) is a species of silky anteater native to Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica.
==Taxonomy==
The species was formerly conspecific with the silky anteater (C. didactylus). However, British zoologist John Edward Gray described it as a new species based on the golden yellow back, an always present broad dorsal black stripe and the yellow feet and tail, differing it from the silky anteater, which possesses a fulvous back and grey feet and tail.
