Population [top]
Population: The population is likely to comprise of less than 10,000 individuals (L. Heaney pers. comm. 2006). This is a relatively common in suitable habitat (L. Heaney pers. comm.), but it occurs at lower densities than Apomys camiguinensis which is tolerant of a wider range of habitats.
Current Population Trend: Decreasing
Additional data:
? Population severely fragmented: No
Habitat and Ecology [top]
Habitat and Ecology: The species occurs in montane and mossy forest and areas which are subject to natural disturbance caused by volcanoes and landslides, there is little or no old growth forest here because of this disturbance. It is possible that the species remains in lower elevation habitats, including disturbed areas (L. Heaney pers. comm). It has been reported at an elevation range from 900 m to 1,475 m (Rickart et al. 2002).
Systems: Terrestrial
Generation Length (years): 640
Threats [top]
Major Threat(s): If the species remains in lower elevation areas, it may be affected by habitat loss due to slash and burn agriculture, logging, urbanization and increased tourism; it is less threatened at higher elevation areas where logging and deforestation occur to a lesser degree and areas of intact forest remain (L. Heaney pers. comm. 2006).
Conservation Actions [top]
Conservation Actions: The species is found in Timboong Hibok-hibok Natural Monument.
