"Tokudaia" is a genus of murine rodent native to Japan. Known as Ryūkyū spiny rats or spinous country-rats, population groups exist on several non-contigous islands [ [http://www.springerlink.com/content/tb0gyegkx22tdyjc/ "Mammailian Genome" article] ] . Despite their common name and appearance, they are the closest living relatives of the Eurasian field mice ("Apodemus").

Named species are:Verify source|date=January 2008
*"Tokudaia muenninki"
*"Tokudaia osimensis"

At least the latter may be a cryptic species complex.
