It differs from the other two species by its slightly smaller size, narrower but longer head, and cytochrome b sequence.

Additionally, the hind feet are longer than in the red-tailed sportive lemur.

[8] Randrianasolo's sportive lemur inhabits dry deciduous forests in a small region of western Madagascar.

[1] The most pressing threat to Randrianasolo's sportive lemur is the clearing of forests within its range for agriculture and timber extraction.

[1] Additionally, an 87% reduction in this species's range is expected by 2080 due to climate change alone.
