Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Shaw Mayer’s Brush Mouse has a relatively large distribution and, although it is uncommonly captured, it presumably has a large population. In the north part of its range, it is probably threatened by general habitat loss but has no other major threats. Virtually nothing is known ofthis species, and further research is required in orderfully to understand its natural history and evolution, and to determine any possible threats to it.
