The common rock rat (Zyzomys argurus) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found only in Australia, where it lives in the rocky areas of woodlands, grasslands and low open forests, particularly on the talus, or scree, of cliff slopes. As a nocturnal animal, it spends the daytime nesting in cool rock crevices. Direct exposure to the sun can quickly result in heat stroke and death.

  • 은색꼬리바위쥐 또는 커먼바위쥐(Zyzomys argurus)는 쥐과에 속하는 설치류의 일종이다. 오스트레일리아에서만 발견되며, 삼림과 초원, 저지대 개활지 숲의 바위 지역, 특히 암벽 경사면의 비탈과 무너져 내린 바위 부스러기 지역에서 서식한다. 야행성 동물로 낮 시간에는 시원한 바위 틈의 둥지에서 시간을 보낸다. 태양에 직접 노출되면 일사병에 걸리거나 빨리 죽는 수도 있다. 커먼바위쥐는 몸 전체적으로 황금빛 갈색을 띠며, 복부 쪽은 희다. 몸무게는 25~65g이고, 머리부터 몸까지 길이는 85~140mm이다. 길이 90~125mm의 꼬리는 두껍고, 지방 저장소를 갖고 있다. 꼬리에 비늘과 듬성 듬성 난 털이 덮여 있다. 꼬리 피부가 쉽게 벗겨지기 때문에 포식자에게 붙잡힐 때 쉽게 도망칠 수 있다.(도마뱀 꼬리의 기능과 유사하다.) 먹이는 식물 잎과 풀, 씨앗, 과일, 곤충 등으로 이루어져 있다.

  • Zyzomys argurus är en däggdjursart som först beskrevs av Thomas 1889. Zyzomys argurus ingår i släktet Zyzomys och familjen råttdjur. IUCN kategoriserar arten globalt som livskraftig. Inga underarter finns listade. Inom arten är den genetiska variationen påfallande låg. Detta råttdjur förekommer i norra Australien (Western Australia, Northern Territory och Queensland) med tre större och några små populationer som är avskilda från varandra. Arten vistas vanligen i klippiga regioner som kan vara täckta av gräs, buskar eller träd. (sv)
  • Zyzomys argurus (скельний щур товстохвостий або скельний щур звичайний) — вид мишоподібних гризунів родини Мишеві (Muridae). Є ендеміком Австралії, віддає перевагу кам'янистим схилам і осипам, порослим лісом. Тварина веде нічний спосіб життя, вдень ховаючись в прохолодних розщелинах скель. Перебування вдень під пекучим сонцем може викликати сонячний удар і смерть. Харчуються вони рослинною їжею: травами, насінням, споживають гриби і комах. Вид широко поширений і не є під загрозою знищення. (uk)

  • The common rock rat (Zyzomys argurus) is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found only in Australia, where it lives in the rocky areas of woodlands, grasslands and low open forests, particularly on the talus, or scree, of cliff slopes. As a nocturnal animal, it spends the daytime nesting in cool rock crevices. Direct exposure to the sun can quickly result in heat stroke and death. The rock rat is an overall golden brown with white belly. It can weigh anywhere 25–65 grams, with a head to body length of 85–140 mm. The thick tail is 90–125 mm long and contains fat deposits. The tail is covered in overlapping scales and sparse hairs. The skin of the tail can easily be pulled off, allowing the animal to escape predators in some situations (this function is similar to that of lizard tail autotomy). They are sexually mature at 5 to 6 months of age. The females have 4 nipples but litters average 2 to 3 offspring. Gestation is about 35 days. By the 10th day, the offspring are covered in fur, and by the 12th day their eyes are open. They are weaned by 4 weeks of age. The life span of the Common Rock Rat in the wild is unknown, but an age of 4.2 years in captivity has been reported. Their diet consists of plant matter, grasses, seeds, fungi and insects. One was observed in Maguk, Kakadu National Park, tucking into a plate of custard and rice pudding that someone had left unattended (Goodfellow, Fauna of Kakadu and the Top End, 1993). (en)
