At first glance it resembles a mouse, but it is a small marsupial mammal of the Dyscopus family with a sturdy body, short limbs, a long, pointed snout, and a long black tuft on the upper surface of the tip of the tail. The fur is thin and soft, and is grayish-brown or reddish-brown in color. There is a white border around the eyes. The brood pouch is little more than a horizontal fold of skin and is poorly developed. It is 13-14.8 cm long, 8.5-13 cm long, and weighs around 150 g. It lives in burrows that it digs in the desert regions of southern and central Australia. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
