Antechinus leucopus Antechinus is a genus of small dasyurid marsupial endemic to Australia. They resemble mice with the bristly fur of shrews. They are sometimes also called broad-footed marsupial mice, pouched mice, route rat or Antechinus shrews. However, those common names are considered either regional or archaic, and the modern common name for the animals is antechinus.
