The Inca Hocicudo is a South American rodent with black grizzling on its brown back and dark orange underparts. The cited specialist account notes that natural-history information is scarce.
Its brown back is grizzled with black on the crown and midline, fading paler on the sides. The underside is dark orange, with pale bands on the forearms and a yellow-orange stripe reaching the wrists.
The cited specialist book says that natural-history information, including field behavior and diet, is scarce and limited to brief collector notes. A settled diet or activity schedule cannot be given from this account.
