Broad-headed tree mouse

The broad-headed tree mouse, Chiruromys lamia, is also known as the lamia. It is a rodent found chiefly in southeastern New Guinea and belongs to the family Muridae, in the genus Chiruromys. The name was published by Thomas in 1897. It is arboreal, which means it lives in the trees, and it nests in hollow trees. Wikipedia gives the elevation range as 1,200 to 2,300 metres, or about 3,900 to 7,500 feet, so it is recorded well above sea level rather than at the coast. The GBIF taxonomic backbone lists the name as accepted in the family Muridae.
