Eastern shrew mouse

Mammals

The eastern shrew mouse (Pseudohydromys murinus) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae that is found only in Papua New Guinea. It belongs to the genus Pseudohydromys, the moss mice, and was described by Hans Rümmler in 1934. The Wikipedia article is a short stub that places the species among the rodents of New Guinea, and its infobox gives the IUCN category as Least Concern. Because it occurs only in Papua New Guinea, the whole of its known range lies within that one country.
