Hyorhinomys stuempkei is a recently discovered species of rodent in the family Muridae, endemic to Sulawesi, Indonesia. Described as a "hog-nosed shrew rat", the discoverers proposed "Sulawesi snouter" as a common name for it. The word "snouter" references the fictional text, The Snouters: Form and Life of the Rhinogrades by the German zoologist Gerolf Steiner. Steiner wrote this text as a fictional naturalist, Harald Stümpke, and the specific epithet of H. stuempkei pays homage to this fictional individual.
