The arid thicket rat (Grammomys aridulus) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae, placed in the genus Grammomys and described by Thomas and Hinton in 1923. According to Wikipedia it is found only in Sudan, and its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, which fits its name. The sources disagree on how threatened it is: the Wikipedia article says it is listed as Nearly Threatened, while the IUCN assessment relayed through GBIF records it as Data Deficient. The Wikipedia article is brief and gives no measurements, diet or breeding data, and this entry adds none beyond what the two pages state.
