DISTRIBUTION: Australia, Queensland; one population ranges from the tip of Cape York south down the E side of the Peninsula to the vicinity of Coen, another from the region of Cooktown south along the coast to Tully; all records are east of the Great Dividing Range (see maps in Taylor and Horner, 1973:43; Watts and Aslin, 1981). New Guinea; widespread in lowlands south of Central Cordillera, and in N and S lowland regions fringing the Owen Stanley Range (see map in Taylor et al., 1982:232).

COMMENTS: This species and R. sordidus are the only two native Rattus occurring on both New Guinea and the NE coastal region of Australia (Taylor et al., 1982). Morphologically related to other species of Rattus native to New Guinea (Taylor et al., 1982).
