Description
Chiropodomys muroides Medway 1965
Chiropodomys muroides Medway 1965, J. Malay. Branch R. Asiat. Soc., 36 (3): 133.
Type Locality: Malaysia (Borneo), Sabah, Gunung Kinabalu, Bundu Tuhan, 4000 ft (1220 m).
Vernacular Names: Gray-bellied Pencil-tailed Tree Mouse.
Distribution: Known only by a few specimens from Gunung Kinabalu (1100-1220 m; Md Nor, 2001) and N Kalimantan (Long Petak), but probably occurs elsewhere on Borneo.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (nt).
Discussion: The smallest in body size of any known species of Chiropodomys; its closest phylogenetic allies may be C. gliroides and C. pusillus.
