Origin: From proper names, combined with an English element. Etymons: proper name Abert , squirrel n.

Etymology: In α. forms < the genitive of the name of John James Abert (1788–1863), a topographical engineer in the U.S. army + squirrel n. In β. forms < the name of Abert + squirrel n.Compare scientific Latin aberti, specific name:1854 S. W. Woodhouse in Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia 1852–3 6 220 Having discovered that the specific name dorsalis, which I applied to the squirrel brought by me from New Mexico..has already been applied by J. E. Gray to one of the same genus, I propose now to call it Sciurus Aberti, after Colonel J. J. Abert, chief of the corps of Topographical Engineers.

A tree squirrel, Sciurus aberti, found in pine forests of southwestern North America, which is dark grey with pale undersides and distinctive long black ear tufts.
