Its natural habitat is montane subtropical or tropical dry forest at elevations from 1,200 to 1,500 m (3,900 to 4,900 ft), and it is threatened by habitat loss. The species was described by Oldfield Thomas in 1927 and belongs to the genus Hapalomys. The species box lists it as Near Threatened, and GBIF, which carries the IUCN Red List category, gives the same category, consistent with the habitat loss the article names as its main threat.
