Eastern rainforest grammomys

Mammals

The eastern rainforest grammomys, Grammomys kuru, also known as the eastern rainforest thicket rat, is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is distributed through the Congo Basin in the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in forest patches of western Uganda, and possibly in the Republic of Congo, in moist and semi-dry montane and lowland rainforest. The IUCN lists it as Least Concern because it is presumed to be common, with no apparent major threats to the species as a whole and no conservation measures in place. Whether it can persist in modified or degraded habitat is unknown. Some authorities treat it as a synonym of the shining thicket rat, although it has a shorter skull and smaller molar rows.
