The blazed Luzon shrew-rat, Chrotomys silaceus, is a rodent in the family Muridae that is endemic to the Philippines. It occurs in the Central Cordillera of northern Luzon, at elevations of 1,800 to 2,500 metres, where it is known from only four disparate localities. It frequents dense vegetation in montane and mossy forests and does not make use of severely disturbed habitat, although it has been reported from mosaic vegetation created by landslides.
