The Lore Lindu xanthurus rat, Rattus facetus, is a rodent of the family Muridae in the tribe Rattini and the genus Rattus. G. S. Miller and N. Hollister described it in 1921 from a holotype collected on Mount Lehio, south-west of Lake Lindu in Central Sulawesi, above about 1,800 metres, in the collection made by H. C. Raven in Celebes. The Mammal Diversity Database records it as a living species found in the wild in the Australasian realm, with Indonesia as its country of distribution, and lists its IUCN Red List status as Least Concern. The database notes that it was split from Rattus marmosurus.
