Archboldomys, the shrew-mice, are a genus of rodents in the family Muridae. They are carnivores that feed on invertebrates much like shrews do. An apparently smaller relatives of the true shrew-rats Chrotomys and Rhynchomys, Archboldomys are somewhat convergent to the more distantly related Crunomys.[1]
The species are:
- Mount Isarog shrew-mouse, Archboldomys luzonensis[2]
- Large Cordillera shrew-mouse, Archboldomys maximus[1]
