The Lesser Tufted-tail Rat is nocturnal and scansorial. It probably lives in ground dens and forages in an arboreal manner. It is capable of moving across very thin lianas, no larger than pencil width. It is known to be preyed on by Madagascar long-eared owls (Asio madagascariensis), Madagascar red owls (71yto soumagne), Spotted Fanalokas (Fossa fossana), and Fosas (Cryptoprocta ferox).

|
||
Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Lesser Tufted-tail Rat is forest-dwelling and is known from numerous localities along the complete length of Madagascar’s eastern humid forests from lowland to montane formations. In some areas, it can be at least seasonally common. Given its occurrence in more montane forest habitats, which are to a large extent not under extensive human pressure, its medium-term future seems relatively assured, but lowland forests are under severe threat.
