Ears are long, leathery, and brown; vibrissae are very long. Tail is 135% of head-body length, blotchy brown above and creamy white below, being clearly demarcated; tip of tail is white on some specimens. Skull is large and elongated, typical of the genus. There are four pairs of mammae: one pectoral, one post-axillary, and two inguinal pairs. Nematodes Filarioidea, Globocephalus, Heligmonoides, Mastopharus,

Primarily lowland tropical forests, sometimes montane wet tropical forests, and disturbed habitat (e.g. logged forests), preferring drier parts of forests, at elevations of 300-3100 m. The Indomalayan Long-tailed Giant Rat seems to be found at higher elevations on Borneo (3100 m) than in Malaysia (1400 m), and it isapparently found at a different elevation than the Sundaic Mountain Long-tailed Giant Rat (L. cthatus).

The Indomalayan Long-tailed Giant Rat generally eats insects, snails, fruit, and other vegetation (including roots and leaves). Foraging occurs in the canopy and on the ground. Food hoarding occurs; in Malaysia, they would hide fruit given to them (oil palm fruit,

|

Breeding occurs year-round, with peak of pregnant females in July—September, being less common in January-March. Litters have 1-7 young (mean3-1). Young are born in burrows with 1-2 entrances dug into hillsides. Nests are usually lined with broad leaves collected from nearby shrubs and undergrowth.

The Indomalayan Long-tailed Giant Rat is mainly terrestrial and nocturnal. A recent study found 20 nests underground and four nests aboveground, and another study found 20 nests underground and 14 nests aboveground, indicating preference for nesting on the ground. Ground nests were 40-80 m apart, more commonly 50-80 m. Aboveground nests were located in tree cavities and logs with entrances 1-1-6 m aboveground. The species sleeps in nests during the day and comes out at night. Mean time spent moving at night in one study was 485 minutesin logged and unlogged forests.

|
||
Indomalayan Long-tailed Giant Rats are known to traverse trees to forage. Females and males or females and juveniles are known to stay in the same nests. When moving around at night, paths (determined by radio-tracking data) are relatively straight, and movement averages 32 m/ten minutes, covering areas of 2083-9829 m®. Paths were mostlikely determined by location of resources rather than by sex or habitat type (logged vs. unlogged forest).

Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Indomalayan Long-tailed Giant Rat has a wide distribution and is fairly common, being the most common species found in a surveyat Mount Nuangin Selangor, Malaysia. Deforestation might be a threat in regions with prevalent logging, but it commonly occurs in logged forests and is found in many protected areas.
