Local names for P. cumingi include bugkoon, parout, parret, alimaong, jaula, bohot, and eut-eut.
The only reported predators of P. cumingi are humans. The animal is a food source, with some local hunters reporting that they killed up to 50 P. cumingi in a year. This animal is also known to be used in at least one medicinal treatment. No information is currently available on anti-predation behavior, although many specimens captured were burnt out of hollow trees, where it is possible they sought refuge.
Known Predators:
The subfamily Phloeomyinae is distinguished by molars divided by transverse, plate-like cusps, a thickly furred tail, and a larger body size than other members of the family Muridae. The molars are generally worn down in adults, but are still noticeably hypsodont. The type specimen described by Cuming is distinguished from the similar genus Capromys by unique skull morphology in which the interparietal bone is rounded, the auditory bullae are reduced, and the upper tooth rows show an anterior convergence.
Several body characters distinguish P. cumingi from other murid rodents, including the presence of only one set of mammae. The muzzle is short, and long hair covers the outside of the ears. The pelage color patterns vary greatly, but are often described as dark brown or black and white. The coat texture is rough, with longer, lighter colored hairs interspersed in the dorsal portion of the coat, and longer hairs on the head and back. The ventral portion is paler than the rest of the coat. The long, thick hair of the tail is blacker than the coat. The other recognized species of slender-tailed cloud rat, P. pallidus, is larger than P. cumingi and is differentiated by its longer, softer, and paler fur. Some controversy remains, however, as to whether this species is just a seasonal or latitudinal variation of P. cumingi.
The tail of P. cumingi is generally shorter than the head and body length. The feet are wide and large, and are bare on the walking surface. There are long claws on the forefeet. The length of the head and body ranges from 440 to 482.6 mm. Tail lengths have been reported from 320 to 350 mm. The forefoot, not including the claws, measures 43.4 mm, and the hind foot measures 70 mm. Ears measure 25.4 mm. The skull, described as ovate, measures a 59.2 mm in length, and has a width of 43.3 mm.
Dissection of the digestive tract has revealed that the caecum, which aids in the digestion of tough plant material, is unusually long and is larger (in width and length) than the stomach. Additionally, a unique parasitic nematode, Neoheligmonella schaenbergi, has been discovered in the digestive tract of P. cumingi.
Range mass: 1.45 to 2.1 kg.
Range length: 330 to 482 mm.
Sexual Dimorphism: sexes alike
Other Physical Features: endothermic ; bilateral symmetry
Slender-tailed cloud rats are known to live and reproduce successfully in captivity. One animal born in the Washington Zoo reached an age of thirteen years, seven months, and six days. Longevity in the wild has not been reported.

Slender-tailed cloud rats have been found from sea level to 900 m (2,952 ft). P. cumingi is found in forested areas and is semi-fossorial, living in burrows underground. It has been suggested that the inhabited burrows were not dug by P. cumingi, but were abandoned by other animals. Specimens are often captured in hollow logs. Slender-tailed cloud rats have been found in degraded lowland forest and have spread to pasture and farmland.
Range elevation: 0 to 900 m.

Other Habitat Features: agricultural
Phloeomys cumingi is endemic to the Philippine islands of the Palearctic Region. The type specimen was collected in Southwestern Luzon by Cuming. Since the discovery and naming of slender-tailed cloud rats in 1839, the species has been found on the nearby small islands of Marinduque, Mindoro, and Catanduanes. Specific capture locations include Cape Engano, Mont Data, Mont Tirac, Mont Lalaya, Lepanto, Trinidad, Irisan, Haights-in-the Oaks, Benguet, Nueva Ecija, and Baay, Abra.
Biogeographic Regions: palearctic (Native )
Other Geographic Terms: island endemic
Waterhouse first named this animal “Phloeomys” or bark-eating mouse, from reports by Cuming on the lignivorous diet of the species. In its natural habitat, little is known about diet, although it has been reported to eat young vegetation (particularly favoring red leaves) and roots. Captive specimens around the world have been offered an omnivorous diet, including a wide range of plants, grains, and proteins. Plants and grains fed include rolled oats, apples, carrots, celery, lettuce, cabbage, endive, sunflower seeds, cooked reufs, primate supplement NAFAG, biscuits, bread, and Gist-o-cal supplement. The animals have been fed such diverse proteins as fortified dog food, rodent food, ground nuts, fish, bird carcasses, beef, mice, and goats. The animals in captivity also consume large amounts of wood, although the type was not reported.
Animal Foods: birds; mammals; fish
Plant Foods: leaves; roots and tubers; wood, bark, or stems; seeds, grains, and nuts; fruit
Primary Diet: herbivore (Folivore , Lignivore)
Slender-tailed cloud rats have incredible adaptability to an environment that is becoming converted from forest land to agricultural areas, as it is still found in these areas. Local farmers report that it is not a pest to humans, despite the omnivore's potential for crop destruction. Additionally, continued hunting of the animal has not significantly decreased its numbers. The only other reported interaction of P. cumingi with another species concerns the parasitic nematode N. schauenbergi, which was first dicovered in the alcohol-preserved digestive tract of an animal prepared five years earlier.
Commensal/Parasitic Species:
The primary benefit of slender-tailed cloud rats to humans is as a source of food. Their large body size and adaptability to deforestation, ensure that it is a stable meat source for local people. P. cumingi has also been considered for use as a form of "microlivestock" in forested areas, as an alternative to raising large-scale, unsustainable, traditional domesticated animals for meat sources.
A single medicinal use is known, in which locals drink water with the hair of P. cumingi in it to relieve stomach cramps.
Positive Impacts: food ; source of medicine or drug
No adverse effects of the species on humans are reported.
IUCN lists this species as vulnerable, presumably because of habitat destruction. However, numbers of these animals do not appear to be decreasing, in spite of habitat destruction and hunting.
US Federal List: no special status
CITES: no special status
IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: vulnerable
Several researchers who kept the animals in captivity for study report that cloud rats makes short growls when irritated, similar to the growl of a marmot. As mammals, we can infer that they probably have other means of communication as well, including physical posturing, tactile communication, and scents, although the literature does not contain specific mention of these.
Communication Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
No information is currently available on the mating system of P. cumingi, or of the other member of the genus, P. pallidus.
Very little is known about the reproductive patterns of slender-tailed cloud rats. Only single births have ever been recorded in captivity. Births have been observed in captivity in Washington, D.C. over every month of the year except January, March, and May. The young of P. cumingi are suspended by a teat and remain attached there while the mother moves around. The small amount of data on the birthing season of P. cumingi in the wild has been obtained by examining recent uterine scars of captured specimens. These data show that births occur in the late rainy season (December). January to May is the dry season in Luzon, and no birth scars were observed in specimens captured during these times.
Breeding interval: The frequency of breeding is unknown.
Breeding season: The time of year in which mating occurs is unknown.
Range number of offspring: 1 to 1.
Key Reproductive Features: iteroparous ; gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); sexual ; fertilization ; viviparous
Average number of offspring: 1.
The female nurses and carries the juvenile, which attaches to a teat for an unreported amount of time. The degree of development and size at birth has not beet reported, nor has the male role in parental care in this species.
Parental Investment: no parental involvement; female parental care ; pre-fertilization (Protecting: Female); pre-hatching/birth (Provisioning: Female, Protecting: Female); pre-weaning/fledging (Provisioning: Female, Protecting: Female)

Velemyš největší (Phloeomys cumingi), dříve zvaná také jako krysa největší,[2] je druh hlodavce žijící pouze na filipínském ostrově Luzon.[3] Podle kategorizace IUCN patří mezi zranitelné druhy.[4]
Velemyš největší má robustní tělo, krátké nohy, okrouhlé ušní boltce a dlouhý ocas.[5] Je podobná o trochu větší příbuzné velemyši obláčkové – oproti ní má jednobarevnou hnědošedě zbarvenou srst bez světlých ploch.
Žije v korunách stromů, je aktivní v noci. Žije samotářsky, jen občas se sdružuje do malých skupin. Rodí jedno mládě, které je oproti menším myším dobře vyvinuté. Matka jej nosí pevně přisáté na břiše.
Chov v zoo je velkou raritou. První odchov mezi světovými zoo se povedl v roce 2009 v Zoo Lipsko, která tento druh chovala v letech 2008–2016. V roce 2018 byla velemyš největší chována v rámci Evropy jen ve třech českých zoologických zahradách. Jednalo se o:[6]
Zoo Praha vede evropskou plemennou knihu (ESB).[6]
Chov tohoto druhu v Zoo Praha započal v roce 2010[5], kdy přišla první zvířata ze Zoo Plzeň a Zoo Lipsko. První mládě se narodilo v roce 2012.[6] Ke konci roku 2017 byl chován jeden samec.[7]

The southern giant slender-tailed cloud rat or southern Luzon giant cloud rat (Phloeomys cumingi), also known as bugkon in Filipino, is a vulnerable species of rodent in the family Muridae, found only in southern Luzon in the Philippines.[1][2] It is dark brown, occasionally with some reddish, but lacking the light-coloured sections usually seen in its close relative, the northern Luzon giant cloud rat (P. pallidus). The southern giant slender-tailed cloud rat is a large rodent that has a total length of about 67–75 cm (26–30 in) and weighs 1.45–2.1 kg (3.2–4.6 lb).[2]
Equally at home high amongst the branches of a tree as on the forest floor, the southern giant slender-tailed cloud rat is a slow-moving animal only active at night, spending the day in hollow trees or logs. It usually lives singly, or in pairs consisting of an adult male and female, or a female and her young, but larger groups have also been seen. Their diet consists primarily of tender, young leaves, but fruit is also reportedly eaten. The southern giant slender-tailed cloud rat typically gives birth to a single pup each year, with data indicating that most births take place during the late rainy season. The young are born in the hollow of a standing or fallen tree, or in a hole in the ground. The mother carries her young firmly attached to a nipple. In captivity, one cloud rat lived for over 13 years.[3]

De bonte reuzenschorsrat (Phloeomys cumingi) is een knaagdier uit het geslacht Phloeomys dat voorkomt in de Filipijnen in de provincies Camarines Sur, Laguna en Quezon in het zuiden van Luzon en op Catanduanes en Marinduque. Hij leeft in laaglandregenwoud van 150 tot 900 m hoogte. Hoewel deze soort vrij algemeen is, wordt hij hevig bejaagd en wordt zijn habitat vernietigd. Toch schijnen de aantallen niet af te nemen.
Vrouwtjes hebben slechts twee mammae. De bek is kort. De oren zijn bedekt met lange haren. De vacht is donkerbruin of zwart-wit. De staart is wat donkerder van kleur en korter dan de kop-romp. De voeten zijn lang, breed en naakt. Het gewicht bedraagt 1,45 tot 2,10 kilo, de kop-romplengte 440 tot 482 mm, de staartlengte 320 tot 350 mm, de voorvoetlengte 43,4 mm, de achtervoetlengte 70 mm, de oorlengte 25,4 mm. Het Blindedarm&caecum is zeer groot, groter dan de maag.
Er wordt maar één jong per keer geboren, dat meestal wordt geboren in december, en nooit tussen januari en mei (het droge seizoen op Luzon). Het pasgeboren jong blijft aan de tepel hangen en wordt door de moeder verzorgd. Deze soort is ook in gevangenschap gehouden. Een exemplaar in de dierentuin van Washington is 13,5 jaar oud geworden.
De soort leeft half ondergronds, maar ook in bomen. Mogelijk zijn de holen waarin hij leeft niet door P. cumingi gegraven, maar door andere dieren. Ze zijn rustig in gevangenschap. De soort is meestal solitair, maar soms zijn er kleine groepjes. Ze grommen als ze geïrriteerd worden. De soort eet allerlei plantaardig en dierlijk voedsel, zelfs hout.
De soort wordt veel door mensen bejaagd. Hij wordt gebruikt als medicijn door de lokale bevolking: water met haren van deze soort zouden helpen tegen maagkrampen. In de soort is een unieke parasitische nematode gevonden, Neoheligmonella schauenbergi.

Garnitur chromosomowy P. cumingi tworzą 44 pary chromosomów[6]. Przeprowadzone badania filogenetyczne pozwoliły na rozstrzygnięcie, że utożsamianie szczura drzewnego z Phloeomys pallidus było błędne. Kariotyp tego siostrzanego gatunku jest bowiem tworzony przez 40 par chromosomów[7].
Futro sierściogona kokosowego ma charakterystyczne, ciemnobrązowe ubarwienie[7].
Wymiary anatomiczneSierściogon kokosowy wiedzie nocny tryb życia. Dnie spędza w dziuplach wydrążonych w drzewach lub kłodach. Samica rodzi jeden raz w roku, najczęściej w listopadzie i grudniu. W jednym miocie przychodzi na świat 1-2 młodych, a w sporadycznych przypadkach 3. W okresie karmienia przez matkę masa ciała młodych wynosi 370-610 g. Samica opiekuje się młodymi do lutego-marca[7].
P. cumingi żywi się między innymi liśćmi papai i słodkich ziemniaków oraz liśćmi i owocami kolczocha jadalnego. Chętnie zjada też kwiatostany Erythrina subumbrans. Populacja P. cumingi zmniejsza się ze względu na intensywne polowania[7]. Mięso sierściogona kokosowego jest chętnie wykorzystywane przez lokalne społeczności na pożywienie. Na terenie plantacji jest także zwalczany jako szkodnik[2].
Zoolodzy określili rodzaj siedliska gatunku na górze Isarog (na wyspie Luzon), oraz na wyspie Catanduanes. Szczury drzewne zamieszkują tam lasy porastające zbocza górskie od poziomu morza do wysokości 900 m.n.p.m. Od mniej więcej lat trzydziestych XIX wieku odnotowywane są populacje zamieszkujące na lokalnych plantacjach orzechów kokosowych[2]. Sierściogon kokosowy zakłada swoje gniazda w dziuplach wydrążonych w kłodach, lub w drzewach[7].

Phloeomys cumingi[2][3] är en däggdjursart som först beskrevs av Waterhouse 1839. Phloeomys cumingi ingår i släktet barkråttor, och familjen råttdjur.[4][5] IUCN kategoriserar arten globalt som sårbar.[1] Inga underarter finns listade i Catalogue of Life.[4]
Denna gnagare förekommer på flera öar i centrala Filippinerna. Habitatet utgörs av skogar i låglandet och i låga bergstrakter upp till 900 meter över havet. Arten uppsöker även odlade områden.[1]
Arten kännetecknas av en smal svans som är täckt med päls. På kroppen är pälsen borstig med några långa mjuka hår inblandade. Den har vanligen en mörkbrun till svartaktig färg. Hos individer som hölls som sällskapsdjur förekommer ofta rödaktig päls. Även de små öronen är täckta av päls. Alla tår är utrustade med kraftiga klor för att klättra i träd. Individerna blir 67 till 75 cm långa, inklusive en 27 till 32 cm lång svans. De väger 1,5 till 2,0 kg.[6]
Phloeomys cumingi är aktiv på natten och vilar på dagen i trädens håligheter. Den klättrar i växtligheten eller går på marken. Arten äter främst mjuka blad samt några frukter. Individerna lever främst ensamma eller i par. Ibland observeras flockar. Honor har vanligen en kull per år som består av en enda unge. De flesta ungar föds vid slutet av regntiden. Ungen suger sig i början fast på en spene och följer modern när hon vandrar. Med människans vård kan denna gnagare leva 13 år.[6]
