Head-body 79-86 mm, tail 86-125 mm, ear mean 12 mm, hindfoot mean 25 mm; weight 17-25 g. There is no significant secondary sexual dimorphism. The Long-tailed Pocket Mouse is medium-sized for the genus, with crested, tufted, and bicolored tail that is longer than head-body length. Dorsal pelage is soft, lacking any stiff rump spines, and is slate gray with no lateral stripe; under parts are whitish. Distal tail crest is darker than dorsal pelage. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 36 and FN = 52. The Long-tailed Pocket Mouse may be found in the vicinity ofsix other species of the genus. It is smaller than the Peninsular Pocket Mouse (C. rudinors), which favors more open areas of pebbly soils that mark transitions from sandy flats to rocky alluvial slopes or “bajadas.” It only rarely overlaps with the California Pocket Mouse (

Diet of the Long-tailed Pocket Mouse consists largely of seeds of shrubs, annuals, and grasses, but it also includes smaller amounts of green vegetation and insects. Food items are collected in external, furlined cheek pouches and transported back to burrows, where they are stored in burrow caches. It does not need to drink water, subsisting entirely on water from its food and water produced as a byproduct of metabolism.

Breeding season of the Long-tailed Pocket Mouse occurs in spring and continues into summer. Females normally produce one litter annually with 2-7 young. Reproductive activity is closely tied to spring vegetative growth, and a population can double in favorable years. In exceptional years, ¢.70% of females in a population are pregnant, litter sizes average c.6 young, offspring of the season breed later in the same year, and a fivefold increase in population size has been reported.

The Long-tailed Pocket Mouse is nocturnal and terrestrial, and it is active throughout the year. Individuals may become torpid on cold nights and in winter.

Male Long-tailed Pocket Mice are more mobile than females. There is intrasexual and intersexual overlap in home ranges, and home ranges are larger for males. The Long-tailed Pocket Mouse is solitary and likely polygynous and promiscuous. Males tended to increase their home ranges during the reproductive season. Home range sizes are estimated at 0-55 ha. Density has been estimated to be as high as 30 ind /ha.
