有五个以前描述的本地物种，所有这些都是地方性的，至少有四个引进的物种，塞拉姆的鼠科啮齿动物区系比任何其他摩鹿加岛屿的编目更多样化。在这里，啮齿动物区系的塞拉姆简要回顾，并从岛上的一个新记录的啮齿动物被描述为Melomys rufescens paveli，一个新的亚种，否则已知的新几内亚和俾斯麦群岛的物种。其他非volant哺乳动物从塞拉姆和附近的安汶和布鲁岛进行了简要讨论。
With five previously described native species, all of them endemic, and at least four introduced species, the murid rodent fauna of Seram is more diverse than that catalogued from any other Moluccan island. Here, the rodent fauna of Seram is briefly reviewed, and a newly recorded rodent from the island is described as Melomys rufescens paveli, a new subspecies of a species otherwise known from New Guinea and the Bismarck Archipelago. Other non-volant mammals from Seram and the nearby islands of Ambon and Buru are briefly discussed.
