Mindomys
''Mindomys hammondi'', also known as Hammond's rice rat〔 or Hammond's oryzomys,〔Musser and Carleton, 2005, p. 1149〕 is a species of rodent in the tribe Oryzomyini of family Cricetidae. Formerly considered to be related with ''Nectomys'', ''Sigmodontomys'', ''Megalomys'', or ''Oryzomys'', it is now placed in its own genus, ''Mindomys'', but its relationships remain obscure; some evidence supports a placement near ''Oecomys'' or as a basal member of Oryzomyini.
''Mindomys hammondi'' is known only from Ecuador, where it occurs in montane forest; a record from the Amazonian lowlands is dubious. Reportedly, it lives on the ground and is associated with water; other suggest it lives in trees. A large, long-tailed, and long-whiskered rat, its fur is buff above and abruptly lighter below. The front part of the skull (rostrum) is heavily built.
The species is named after the collector who first found it, Gilbert Hammond. He supplied natural history specimens to Oldfield Thomas and others.
