Emma's giant rat

Mammals

Emma's uromys or Emma's giant rat (Uromys emmae) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is only known from Owi Island, a small island of about 1 square kilometre in area, located some 5 kilometres (3 miles) south of Biak Island, Indonesia. Its known range is therefore confined to a single small island. The Wikipedia article that describes it is one paragraph and a reference list, so this entry records its identity, family and the island where it is known, and leaves its measurements, habitat, diet and conservation status open.
