Eastern humid montane and sclerophyllous forest at elevations of 900-2450 m. The Small Short-tailed Rat is widely scattered and also occurs in degraded forest areas, agricultural areas (including abandoned rice paddy), and marshlands of different types (edge of open water, grassy meadows). It is known to swim in open and relatively deep water. It is one of the small mammals found above tree line in the summit zone of the Andringitra Massif (2658 m) that experiences temperatures of =7°C and sometimes snow. In the highland marshes of

Female Small Short-tailed Rats have three pairs of mammae and maximum litter sizes of two young. Reproduction takes place at least during the southern winter when pregnant and lactating females have been captured and males have enlarged scrotal testes.

The Small Short-tailed Rat is cathemeral. Individuals are usually trapped in early morning and toward dusk, but also at night. They are presumed to live in underground burrow systems. They are preyed on by Fosas (Cryptoprocta ferox).

Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Small Short-tailed Rat is not necessarily forest-restricted but is known from less than ten localities in eastern Madagascar. It was trapped in the vicinity of a rice field and more than 11 km to the nearest forest. Given its ability to live outside forest-habitat, it appears much more adapted to anthropogenic changes than most species of
