Kunsia tomentosus (Rodentia: Cricetidae)

Kunsia tomentosus (Lichtenstein, 1830), the woolly giant rat, is a semifossorial cricetid typically associated with the Cerrado and Beni domains in central South America.

Kunsia was recently revised and includes only 1 species. It is the largest extant sigmondontine and is readily distinguishable by its size, a body covered with dark-gray fur that is coarse and dense, moderately short tail, short limbs, bicolored manus and pes, and long, powerful claws. It inhabits primarily open grasslands and savannas from central and southwestern Brazil and northern Bolivia. K. tomentosus presently is not considered threatened; however, westernmost populations have presumably been extirpated in the past 2 centuries.Fil: Bezerra, Alexandra M. R..
