Head-body 81-114 mm, tail 149-190 mm, ear 12-16 mm, hindfoot 36—44 mm; weight mean 53 g. Male Phillips's 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; dark dorsal and ventralstripes unite in distal one-third, with black crest and usually with sharply contrasting white terminal tuft. White tail tuft is short in subspecies

Little remaining natural habitat in these basins, often clustered around rocky knolls where plowing is impractical, has short grass with clumps of prickly pear cacti (

Burrows appear to be relatively simple, with 1-2 openings, often in bare, open fields. Entrances are not plugged.
