; weight c. 2-5 kg. The coat color ranges from pale buff to pale ocher, darkening to ocher on the shoulders and the middle line of the back. The throat is a light ash-gray; the remaining underparts a mixture of buff and gray, paling to ash-gray in the genital region. The black mid-dorsal line is composed of relatively long hairs; it begins after the shoulder and runs to the base of the tail. There is a dorsal erectile crest. The large dark brown to black spots on the dorsal pelage run in longitudinal rows, with the top three rows being the most uniform. These spots become smaller and more randomly spaced towards the ventral pelage, where the chest and throat have only a few small spots; there are no spots between the hindlegs. The hair covering the scrotum in the male is dark brown. The face has a dark mask and a pair of supraand sub-ocular white spots. The tail has eight to ten pale rings alternating with dark rings. The width of the pale rings relative to the dark rings in the middle of the tail is 50-75%; the tip of the tail is pale gray. The forelimbs and hindlimbs are boldly spotted. The forelegs are pale on the innermost side and dark gray above, with scattered small spots. The inner hindlegs are dark gray, unspotted, and have a grayish patch over the upper metatarsal region. The feet are dark. There is one pair of teats. The auditory bulla has a ventrally inflated posterior chamber, with a continuous curve line on the externalside. The premaxillary-frontal contact is present and the ratio between the inter-orbital constriction and frontal width is 1:00 + 0-12. Dental formula: 13/3,C1/1,P4/4,M 2/2 = 40.

, the percentage occurrence of prey itemsin eleven stomachs was: 51% insects, 20% mammals, 9% reptiles, and 6% plant matter. In terms of biomass, small mammals were the most important prey items, followed by arthropods; there is a 70% overlap in diet with the sympatric Rusty-spotted Genet, indicating strong interspecific competition for food between these two species. Two captive genets were observed pursuing and pouncing on small insects, frogs, and lizards.

Captive animals are agile climbers, spending the majority of their time in high places. They defecated and urinated in one place. They also scent-marked while urinating, slowly moving the pelvis from side-to-side, and rolled and rubbed themselves in smells or substances to which they were attracted. Four vocalizations were noted: a purr and growl; a long meow; a short squeak; and a short sneeze/cough/grunt (used as a contact call).
