Head—body 130-240 mm, tail 55-120 mm; weight 135-210 g. Male South-eastern Pocket Gophers are usually ¢.10% larger than females. It has a fusiform body shape typical of all pocket gophers and possesses fur-lined cheek pouches that open external to the mouth. Pelage is reddish or grayish brown dorsally and lighter ventrally. Individuals with a white patch on throat or forehead have been reported. Anterior surface of each upper incisor has a large medial groove flanked by a smaller groove located along the inner margin of the tooth. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 42 and FN = 80.

|

There is no specific information available for this species, but the South-eastern Pocket Gopher probably feeds on roots, tubers, stems, and leaves of most plants available within the vicinity ofits burrow system. It readily invades cultivated fields and is considered an agricultural pest wherever it occurs in contact with humans. As in all other pocket gophers, the burrow system is a series of shallow feeding tunnels radiating spoke-like from a deeper, central network that contains one or more nest chambers and several smaller chambers for storage of food or fecal pellets.

|
||
The South-eastern Pocket Gopher appears to breed throughout the year, with major peaks in February-March and June-August. Each female produces 1-2 litters/year, and litters have 1-3 young. Young are weaned in c.30 days and reach reproductive maturity in 4-6 months.
