) and differs in having a white throat and reddish sides, rather than being uniformly brown. Upperparts are brownish and lateral parts are reddish yellow; top of head is dusky, but sides more reddish. Underparts are grayish brown, but chest and throat are white to the roots. Tail is brownish above and white below. Feet are grayish brown to base of toes, but on innerside they are white. Skull is similar that of the Short-haired Water Rat, but larger, with somewhat smaller bullae; both species also lack the third upper and lower molars. Females have four mammae.

Northern Water Rats are largely nocturnal, but one individual entered a trap during afternoon, suggesting that the species may be partly diurnal.

Classified as Endangered on The IUCN Red List because its area of occupancy is considered to be less than 200 km? and individuals are known from fewer than five locations. There is continuing decline in the extent and quality of its habitat, and hunting has resulted in a continuing decline in the number of mature individuals. It is not known if the Northern Water Rat is present in any protected areas. Further studies of the distribution and ecology of the species are needed.
