Müller's giant Sunda rat (Sundamys muelleri) is a rodent of the family Muridae that is found across mainland and island Southeast Asia, in Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Thailand. Jentink described it in 1879 in the Notes from the Leyden Museum, and the brackets around the authority in the GBIF Backbone Taxonomy show that it was first placed in another genus before it was moved to Sundamys. GBIF records its English common name as Müller's rat. It belongs to the order Rodentia and the class Mammalia. The IUCN Red List category recorded by GBIF for this species is Least Concern, which means it has not been judged to be at significant risk of extinction.
