The Amuyao tree-mouse (Musseromys inopinatus) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae that is found on Mount Amuyao on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. Like the other members of the genus Musseromys it is a small murid, weighing between 15 and 22 grams, with a tail of 82 to 101 millimetres that is usually longer than its body, which measures 74 to 84 millimetres. The species is known from two adult specimens, a male holotype and a female, both held in the collections of the Field Museum of Natural History. Because it is known from only one location and little is known about its distribution or abundance, the IUCN has assessed the Amuyao tree-mouse as Data Deficient. It is endemic to the Philippines.
