Euryoryzomys russatus, also known as the russet oryzomys,[3]russet rice rat,[1] or big-headed rice rat,[4] is a species of rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is a member of the genus Euryoryzomys, which was split off from Oryzomys in 2006. It was first described by Johann Andreas Wagner in 1848.[1] It is found in southern Brazil,[5] eastern Paraguay[5] and northeastern Argentina.[5] It is considered a large species in its genus, with a reddish-brown coat, long tail length, and large skull.[5] It is a terrestrial rodent, spending its time foraging for seeds, fruits, and insects.[6][7] It is listed by the IUCN as least concern, although studies have shown it to be influenced by anthropogenic disturbances.[8] Predators consist of small members of the order Carnivora.[9][10]
