The fawn hopping mouse (Notomys cervinus) is a medium sized rodent endemic to the Channel Country Bioregion of northeast South Australia and southwest Queensland in Australia.[2] They inhabit open gibber (stony) and clay plains of the Lake Eyre basin.[3] While the population and distribution has been greatly reduced since European settlement, the current population shows little evidence of significant decline and is consequently listed as 'Near Threatened'.[3]
