Head-body 370-420 mm, tail 17 mm, ear 30-50 mm, hindfoot 67-87 mm. No specific data are available for body weight but probably c.1-5 kg. The Sumatran Striped Rabbit has very short ears. Fur has conspicuous wide black or dark brown stripes on a yellowish gray background that becomes rusty brown toward the rear. Ventral fur, chin, and insides of legs are whitish. Ears are black, and when folded forward, they only reach the eyes. Head is broad, muzzle short, and legs are short. Tail is extremely short, contains only twelve bones compared to 19-24 in other leporids, and is normally notvisible. Furis soft and short. Color is apparently variable among individuals, and stripes might be absent in front or much reduced.

The Sumatran Striped Rabbit is completely nocturnal and hides in dark places at bases oftrees, in burrows, or in holes in the ground during the daytime. [t probably uses burrows made by other animals because captive individuals do not dig.

Classified as Vulnerable on The IUCN Red List. The Sumatran Striped Rabbit is endemic to Indonesia and apparently the rarest lagomorph. Historically,its distribution has been described as extending from southern Sumatra to Aceh along the Barisan Mountains, but no recent records have been made outside western Sumatra even though a numberof surveys and camera trappings have been conducted across the island. Recent sightings and photographs taken in the Bukit Barisan Selatan and Kerinci-Seblat national parks suggest that the two parks serve as current refugia for the Sumatran Striped Rabbit. Considering that it is only active at night and lives in remote inaccessible habitat, it might not be surprising that local people had no name for it when it was discovered. Detailed surveys for other rare species on the island such as the Sumatran Tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) or the Sumatran Rhinoceros (Dicerorhinus sumatrensis) have rarely encountered Sumatran Striped Rabbits, so they seem to be remarkably rare. Little is known about the biology, ecology, status, or distribution of the Sumatran Striped Rabbit. Only a dozen museum specimens collected between 1880 and 1916 exist. Since these collections were made, there has been only one confirmed sighting in 1972 and two photographic records of two different individuals taken by automatic camera traps in 1998. A few additional sightings and photographs from camera traps have been reported since 1998. Major threats to the Sumatran Striped Rabbit are deforestation, human encroachment, and poaching in many of Sumatra’s protected areas. Survival of the Sumatran Striped Rabbit depends on continued existence of their mountain forest habitat. Twenty-five years ago, recommendations highlighted urgent need for widespread studies of biology, ecology, status, and distribution of the Sumatran Striped Rabbit, but no funds have been provided to start these studies. Spotlighting along montane forest roads and camera trapping might be appropriate techniques for targeted ecological research on the Sumatran Striped Rabbit.
