Classified as Least Concern on The [UCN Red List. This forestdwelling species is known from the full length of eastern humid forests of Madagascar. Given continued declines in the natural forests of this region, particularly those at the lower end ofits elevational range, Webb’s Tufted-tail Rat's mediumand long-term futures is uncertain.
