G. poensis (Eisentraut, 1965) (disputed) G. rutilans (Peters, 1876) (disputed) G. centralis (Dollman, 1914) The eastern rainforest grammomys (Grammomys kuru), also known as the eastern rainforest thicket rat, is a species of rodent from the family Muridae.

[2] The species is found in moist and semi-dry montane and lowland rainforest.

[1] There are no apparent major threats to the species as a whole and there are no conservation measures in place; it is assumed that the eastern rainforest grammomys is present in various protected areas.

[1] It is unknown, however, if the species can persist in a modified or degraded habitat.

[1] The eastern rainforest grammomys is considered by some to be a synonym of the shining thicket rat,[1] but the eastern rainforest grammomys has a shorter skull and smaller molar rows.
