montane forest mouse.
DISTRIBUTION—Endemic to northern Luzon (Benguet [USNM], Ilocos Norte [SU], and Mountain [FMNH] provinces)
HABITAT— Recorded in primary montane and mossy forest from 1600 m to 2500 m in montane and mossy forest in the Central Cordillera (Musser, 1982b; Rabor, 1955; Sanborn, 1952).
