South China field mouse

The South China field mouse (Apodemus draco) is a small rodent in the family Muridae, the large family that holds the true mice and rats. Its Wikipedia article reports that it is found in China, India and Myanmar. The species was described by Gerald Barrett-Hamilton in 1900 and belongs to Apodemus, a genus of field mice. The International Union for Conservation of Nature assessed it in 2008 and listed it as Least Concern. The article is a short stub, so little is written there about its habits, diet or population, and this entry records only what that article and its taxonomy box support.
