Mount Irid forest mouse

Mammals

The Mount Irid forest mouse (Apomys iridensis) is a forest mouse endemic to Mount Irid on the island of Luzon in the Philippines, according to the Wikipedia article that serves as this entry's source. The article is a single sentence, so it gives no body measurements, habitat description, diet, lifespan, population figure or conservation category, and it does not state the family or the year the species was described. Those details are left blank here rather than guessed. What the source does establish is the animal's identity, its scientific name in the genus Apomys, and its narrow range on one mountain, which is the reason it is described as endemic.
