Ernst Mayr's water rat (Leptomys ernstmayri) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae, named for the evolutionary biologist Ernst Mayr. It is found in the Foja Mountains of Papua Province, Indonesia, and in the mountains of northeastern Papua New Guinea. Hans Rümmler described it in 1932 and placed it in the genus Leptomys. The article lists it among the rodents of New Guinea, and its infobox gives the IUCN category as Least Concern. Its range therefore spans two mountain areas on either side of the Indonesian and Papua New Guinean border.
