Head—body 344-400 mm, tail 343-417 mm, ear 27-3-30 mm, hindfoot 63—67-2 mm; weight 925 g—1-5 kg. Rothschild’s Woolly Rat is a large species of giant rat, although the smallest in its genus. Pelage is long, dense, and somewhat woolly, with long darkguard hairs throughout. Dorsal pelage is blackish with black-tipped guard hairs or grayish with pale-tipped guard hairs, often with a white band encircling body; ventral pelage either is dirty gray with black guard hairs or is white with gray patches or black guard hairs inguinally. Feet are black with long hooked claws. Ears are relatively large and dark; vibrissae long and dark. Tail is longer than those of other species in genus (¢.100% or more of head-body length), smoother, and black for basal third and white for distal-two thirds. Skull is distinguished from those of other

Rothschild’s Woolly Rat is nocturnal. It is scansorial or arboreal, nesting during the day in epiphytes or tree hollows with a leaf nest. It has also been found nesting in caves. The species has been reported to urinate and defecate on top of the epiphyte in which it is nesting, and to block the entrance with leaves and moss.

Rothschild’s Woolly Rats will travel from tree to tree rather than on the ground, and have been recorded as traveling 85 m in this manner. They may not have a fixedhome range. When caught, they are initially aggressive and lash out and bite, but become tame after a short time. When distressed, they emit a loud snarl.
