Conservation: IUCN – Critically Endangered.

Discussion: Subgenus Cyromys . Another Guadalcanal species that has historically been placed in either genus Uromys or Cyromys , but is currently allocated to the former ( Flannery and Wickler, 1990; Groves and Flannery, 1994). Still represented by less than a dozen specimens (Flannery, 1991), and likely the only species in subgenus Cyromys that is not extinct (Flannery, 1995 b).
