Hadromys humei és una espècie de rosegador de la família dels múrids. És endèmic del nord-est de l'Índia, on viu a altituds d'entre 900 i 1.300 msnm. Es tracta d'un animal nocturn i excavador. El seu hàbitat natural són els boscos tropicals. Està amenaçat per la destrucció i fragmentació del seu medi com a conseqüència de la caça i els incendis.[1] L'espècie fou anomenada en honor de l'ornitòleg britànic Allan Octavian Hume.[2]

The Manipur bush rat (Hadromys humei), also known as Hume's rat or Hume's hadromys, is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found in northeastern India, and is listed as endangered.
The species is endemic to northeast India, and has been recorded from several localities.[1] These are: Angarakhata in Kamrup district (Assam), Bishnupur, Imphal, Senapati and Karong (specimen FMNH 76562) in Manipur.[2]
Originally thought to occur in Yunnan in China also, the Chinese animals have been reclassified as Hadromys yunnanensis Yang & Wang 1987.[1][3] The fossil record shows that populations of the Manipur Bush Rat existed all over Thailand right down to the Thai-Malay border during the Pleistocene.[4] During that time, the Indo-Malayan region may have had a cooler and drier climate with savanna-like regions. A related species is known from the Siwalik fossils from northern Pakistan.[2] These findings indicate that Hadromys humei is probably a "relict" species.[3]
The Manipur bush rat occurs at medium altitudes from 900 to 1,300 m (3,000 to 4,300 ft) above sea level.[1] It inhabits tropical evergreen, moist deciduous and evergreen forests and also found in secondary forests in northeastern India.[5]
The murid was described by Oldfield Thomas in 1886 from specimens in the Manipur collection of Allan Octavian Hume,[6] which was donated to the British Museum (Natural History) after Hume's life's work in ornithological notes were sold by a servant as waste paper.[7][8] The Manipur Bush Rat was named in his honour.[6] The collection has two male and two female specimens, recorded to be collected on 23 March 1881 from "Moirang" (in Manipur),[6] the type locality for this species.[3]
The specimen has been described by Thomas (1886) as:[6]
General colour above exceedingly like that of Golunda ellioti, Gr., viz. coarsely grizzled grey, lightest on the head and graduallv turning to deep rufous on the rump, the tips of the great majoritv of the hairs being white or yellowish white on the head and fore quarters, and gradually becoming rich rufous on the hind quarters, their bases in all cases deep slaty -blue. The other hairs are black throughout, and form the black element in the general grizzling. Sides like the forequarters. Belly yellow or orange, mixed with the slate of the haii -bases; no black-tipped hairs below. The inner sides of the thighs and all round the base of the tail rich rufous. The fur throughout is soft, and unmixed with flattened or spinous bristles. Feet grizzled yellowish white. Ears thinly covered outside with black hairs, and inside with black and yellow or red ones; an indistinct tuft of orange-tipped hairs iu front of the basal notch. Tail well haired, but not pencilled, markedly bicolor, the hairs black above and white below, but the scales, even of the lower side, are uniformly brown. Ears large and evenly rounded, with a small projection in the middle of their inner margins; laid forward they reacli to the posterior corner of the eye. Tail about as long as the body without the head. Fifth front toe unusually short, its claw barely reaching to the bottom of the division between the 2nd and 3rd toes, giving the foot, at first sight, the appearance of being only provided with three toes. Fifth hind toe reaching just to the base of the fourth. Foot-pads 5-6. Mammae 8, 2 pectoral and 2 inguinal pairs.
The head and body length of the largest specimen, a female, was 125 millimetres (4.9 in) long while the tail is 106 millimetres (4.2 in) long.[6] Elsewhere, the head and body length has been given as head and body length as 95 to 140 millimetres (3.7 to 5.5 in), the tail length as 195 to 40 millimetres (7.7 to 1.6 in). The weight has been recorded as ranging from 41 to 77 grams (1.4 to 2.7 oz).[9]
The species has been given conservation status of "Endangered - B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii)" in IUCN Red List ver 3.1. The criteria for this assessment include:[1]
The principal threats to this species are assessed to be loss of and degradation of habitat, fragmentation, and encroachment. Besides these, hunting and fire are also considered to be contributing causes.[5]

Hadromys humei est une espèce de rongeur de la famille des muridés qui vit dans le nord de l'Inde.
On le trouve à une altitude moyenne de 900 à 1 300 mètres d'altitude. Il habite les forêts humides de feuillus et de conifères et également les forêts secondaires.
Il a été décrit par Oldfield Thomas en 1886 à partir de spécimens de la collection venant du Manipur d'Allan Octavian Hume, qui a été offerte au British Museum après que le travail et notes ornithologiques de son auteur aient été vendus par un serviteur comme déchets. Il a été nommé en son honneur. La collection possédait deux mâles et deux femelles, enregistré le 23 mars 1881 en provenance de "Moirang" (dans le Manipur), la localité type de cette espèce.
Hadromys humei (Thomas, 1886) è un roditore della famiglia dei Muridi endemico dell'India.[1][2]
Roditore di piccole dimensioni, con la lunghezza della testa e del corpo tra 118 e 125 mm, la lunghezza della coda di 106 mm, la lunghezza del piede tra 25 e 26,5 mm e la lunghezza delle orecchie di 12 mm.[3]
La pelliccia è soffice, priva di peli spinosi. Il colore delle parti dorsali è grigio-brizzolato, più chiaro sulla testa e con dei riflessi rossicci sul fondo schiena, mentre le parti ventrali sono giallastre o arancioni, con la base dei peli color ardesia. Le parti interne delle anche e la base della coda sono rossicce. I piedi sono bianchi-giallastri. Le orecchie sono grandi e arrotondate, finemente ricoperte di piccoli peli nerastri; un ciuffo indistinto di peli con la punta arancione è presente davanti al padiglione auricolare. La coda è più corta della testa e del corpo, ricoperta densamente di peli, nera sopra e bianca sotto.
È una specie notturna e fossoria.
Si nutre di germogli teneri e di foglie.
Si riproduce a settembre ed ottobre.
Questa specie è diffusa negli stati indiani dell'Assam e di Manipur.
Vive nelle foreste umide decidue e nelle foreste tropicali sempreverdi tra 900 e 1.300 metri di altitudine.
La IUCN Red List, considerato l'areale ridotto e il continuo degrado nella qualità del proprio habitat, classifica H.humei come specie in pericolo (EN).[1]
Hadromys humei is een knaagdier uit het geslacht Hadromys dat voorkomt in Manipur en het noordwesten van Assam (Noordoost-India).[2] Daarnaast zijn er fossielen bekend uit het Midden-Pleistoceen van Thailand, inclusief gebieden ten zuiden van de Landengte van Kra. In sommige kenmerken waren deze fossielen wat primitiever dan de huidige populatie in India.[3]
H. humei is een kleine, op de grond levende rat met een lange staart, lange achtervoeten en een zachte, dichte vacht. De bovenkant is grotendeels grijsbruin, maar de rug is wat roodachtig. De onderkant is vuil wit. De grote, harige oren zijn geelgrijs. De staart is van boven zeer donkerbruin, bijna zwart, maar van onderen zeer lichtbruin, bijna wit. De kop-romplengte bedraagt 98 tot 120 mm, de staartlengte 112 tot 138 mm, de achtervoetlengte 23 tot 28 mm, de oorlengte 16 tot 22 mm en de schedellengte 28,4 tot 31,7 mm. Vrouwtjes hebben 1+1+0+2 mammae.[4][5]
Bronnen, noten en/of referentiesStaroszczur reliktowy[3] (Hadromys humei) – endemiczny gatunek gryzoni z rodziny myszowatych, występujący w północno-wschodnich Indiach. Został opisany naukowo w 1896 roku przez O. Thomasa[4].
Gryzoń ten zamieszkuje trzy enklawy w stanach Asam i Manipur[2]. Skamieniałości zębów trzonowych dowodzą, że gatunek ten ok. 137 tysięcy lat temu (plejstocen) występował także w Tajlandii. Było to związane z panującym wówczas w tym regionie suchszym, chłodniejszym klimatem i występowaniem zbiorowisk roślinności typu sawanny; jest on zatem reliktem epoki lodowej[4]. Jest to zwierzę nocne, kopie nory. Współcześnie występuje w tropikalnych lasach deszczowych, nie tylko w lasach pierwotnych[2]
Staroszczur reliktowy jest uznawany za gatunek zagrożony ze względu na ograniczony zasięg występowania. Gryzonie te występują na obszarze mniejszym niż 5000 km², przy czym gnieżdżą się na mniej niż 500 km². Populacja maleje, grozi jej utrata środowisk. Nie jest chroniony, ustawa o ochronie przyrody z 1972 roku uznaje go za szkodnika[2].

Denna gnagare förekommer i nordöstra Indien (delstater Assam och Manipur). Den vistas i låga bergstrakter mellan 900 och 1300 meter över havet. Habitatet utgörs av tropiska städsegröna skogar och av fuktiga lövfällande skogar. Individerna är aktiva på natten och gräver i marken.[1]
