The Muridae include the typical Old World rats and mice. Murids ancestrally have non-hypsodont teeth with well-distinct cusps. The largest subgroup, the Murinae, have three files of cusps in the upper teeth, while the African Dendromus usually has only a single internal supplementary cusp in the upper teeth (Lavocat 1978). Species of Dendromus, the African climbing mice, have semi-prehensile tails that they use to steady themselves when climbing into low vegetation. The subfamilies Hydromyinae and Pseudomyinae have been recognised for assemblages of rats and mice from the Australo-Papuan region, but are included by some authors in the Murinae. The water rats Hydromys are large amphibious rodents that feed on aquatic invertebrates and small vertebrates. The Hydromyinae also includes the carnivorous Philippine shrew-rats Chrotomys, Celaenomys and Rhynchomys (Musser 1982).
