Head-body mean 114 mm (males) and 108 mm (females), tail 88-145 mm (males) and 81-155 mm (females), ear mean 14 mm, hindfoot 23-30 mm (males) and 22-31 mm (females); weight 45 g. Male Salvins Spiny Pocket Mice are somewhat larger than females. It is scansorial and small-sized for the genus, with coarse adult pelage having abundantstiff, flattened spine-like hairs on dorsal and lateral surfaces of body. Upper parts are grayish brown to deep chocolate brown. There is no obvious buffy lateral line, and belly is white. Hairs on back are curled upward and are conspicuous above spines. Posterior parts of soles of hindfeet are sparsely haired, with six plantar tubercles; claw of second digit on hindfoot is spoon-like, apparently an adaptation for digging. Tail is moderately haired and darker on the upper part. Cheekteeth have medium-high crowns, and lower premolar has two lophids. Auditory bullae are only moderately inflated. Chromosomal complement has 2n = 56 and FN = 86. Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse is much smaller than its phyletically and geographically closest congener, the Panamanian Spiny Pocket Mouse (H. adspersus), which occurs ¢.300 km away in central Panama and has FN = 84. Pelage color of Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse is somewhat darker than that of the Panamanian Spiny Pocket Mouse. Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse is smaller than the Painted Spiny Pocket Mouse (H. pictus), with which it overlaps in southern Mexico.

Mostly dry tropical lowland forests of the Pacific coast of Oaxaca, Chiapas, and Central America to central Costa Rica. Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse also occurs along Pacific slopes of mountains of Central America, reaching elevations of ¢.1500 m. Lower montane forests inhabited by Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse are largely pine-oak. It is common in the Caribbean drainage only along the Rio Motagua and Rio Negro in Guatemala and north-western Honduras. Nests are usually in the burrow system.

Diet of Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse includes seeds, other plant material, and insects. Seeds are transported in external, fur-lined cheek pouches and stored in the burrow or nearby shallow pits. Laboratory studies show that it can survive for months and gain weight on a pure diet of germinating seeds of the guanacaste or elephant-ear tree (

), which is fatally toxic to sympatric rodents, but it cannot live on seeds that have not germinated. Seeds that have been scarified by chewing by Salvins Spiny Pocket Mice readily germinate in moist burrow storage chambers, and the tree species may depend to a large degree on the mouses behavior after seed caching and on depth of storage chambers.

Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse has an average litter size of 3-6 young (range of 2-6). Breeding season may be highly seasonal in Costa Rica, lasting for six months (January-June) with an average of 1-8 litters/female; in other populations, it may be year-round. Sex ratio did not differ from 1:1. Minimum annual survival in one population was c.18%.

Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse is solitary, with home ranges oriented randomly with respect to members of the same or opposite sex. Males move around in their home ranges more than females, as measured by distance between captures. Male home ranges are 0-16-0-26 ha; female home ranges are 0-13-0-18. Salvins Spiny Pocket Mouse is probably promiscuous or effectively polygynous. In the laboratory, male size was a good predictor of dominance. Salvins Spiny Pocket Mice are less tolerant of conspecifics and home ranges are less likely to be clumped than in Desmarests Spiny Pocket Mouse (
