Chestnut tree mouse

Mammals

The chestnut tree mouse (Pogonomys macrourus) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Its common name describes it as a tree mouse, but the Wikipedia article that describes it is a short stub that cites the 2005 treatment of the superfamily Muroidea by Musser and Carleton in Mammal Species of the World. It gives no measurements, habitat, diet or conservation status, so this entry records the identity, family and the two countries of its range and leaves the rest open until a source that states them is read.
