Verschuren's swamp rat

Mammals

Verschuren's swamp rat, Congomys verschureni, is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found only in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which makes it endemic to that country. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, and the source describes it as threatened by habitat loss. The short account used for this entry does not give its body size, diet, lifespan, population or formal conservation category, so those details remain to be researched from further sources before the entry can be considered deep.
