Central pebble-mound mouse

Mammals

The central pebble-mound mouse (Pseudomys johnsoni) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae, native to Australia. It was described by Darrell Kitchener in 1985. A second form, the Kimberley mouse (Pseudomys laborifex), was named by Kitchener and Humphreys in 1986 and was until recently considered a distinct species, but the two are now known to be conspecific, so both names refer to one animal. The central pebble-mound mouse is one of the pebble-mound mice and belongs to the genus Pseudomys. Its source article files it among the rodents of Australia and the mammals of the Northern Territory. The article is a short stub that says nothing about its appearance, diet, breeding or numbers, so none of that is claimed here.
