The Darfur gerbil is a small gerbil known from a limited area in northern Sudan. It has been recorded in Sahelian savanna near the desert.
The soles of its hind feet are naked. Its tail is longer than its head-and-body length and lacks a terminal tuft.
Based on capture records, HMW considers it probably nocturnal and terrestrial. The account reports no reliable information on its diet or breeding.
