Dormouse - any of the 20 species of small rodents in the seven genera of the family Gliridae (order Rodentia). Six genera of dormice are distributed through Eurasia and northern Africa, and one, Graphiurus, occurs in sub-Saharan Africa. Dormice are generally squirrellike, with large eyes, soft fur, rounded ears, and well-haired, sometimes bushy, tails. Like squirrels, they are typically arboreal and sit up to eat. Unlike most squirrels, they are nocturnal.
