Dorsum is brownish black, with brown-tipped hairs; venteris bufty white, fading to yellowish on neck and chin; and ventral pelage is not strongly demarcated from dorsal pelage. Feet are dark dorsally, with white digits and undersides. Ears are small. Tail is ¢.126% of head-body length, almost naked, and dark at base, being white for the final two-thirds.
