The greater tree mouse (Chiruromys forbesi) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found only in Papua New Guinea. The species was described by Oldfield Thomas in 1888 and belongs to the genus Chiruromys. Its species box lists it as Least Concern, and the IUCN Red List category carried by GBIF is the same, so the species is not considered at elevated risk of extinction. The Wikipedia article is a very short stub that gives only its family and its range, and the sources read for this entry do not describe its habitat, diet, activity pattern or lifespan.
