Head—body 65-76 mm,tail 24-33 mm, hindfoot 11-14 mm. No specific data are available for body weight. Merriam’s Small-eared Shrew is small. Dorsum is blackish medium gray to blackish brown. Venter is paler gray to grayish brown. Feet are small and slim, with tiny claws, and dusky in color. Tail is very short (¢.32-50% of head-body length), covered with short hair, and slightly bicolored, being dark blackish brown above and paler below. Eyes are diminutive, and ears are small and barely visible under fur. Skull is similar to the Yucatan Small-eared Shrew (
