Head—body 101-110 mm, tail 151-192 mm, ear 12-16 mm, hindfoot 38-45 mm; weight mean 53 g. Male Plateau Kangaroo Rats are slightly larger than females. This is a medium-sized kangaroo rat with four toes on hindfeet. Upper parts are cinnamon; tail is relatively long and bicolored; and dark dorsal and ventral stripes unite in distal one-third, with black crest and sharply contrasting white, 5-15 mm long, terminal tuft.

Compared with these two species, the Plateau Kangaroo Rat has a shorter white tail tip than the Texas Kangaroo Rat (10-15 mm vs. 20-25 mm), and longer than Phillips’s Kangaroo Rat (5-15 mm or entirely lacking). Contrasting black-and-white tail plume readily distinguished the Plateau Kangaroo Rat where it occurs with Merriam’s Kangaroo Rat (
