The Chinese Scrub Vole is a small vole from the highlands of western China, with a short tail and a slate-grey underside washed with greyish white.
On the chewing surface of the first lower molar, a single pair of connected triangles follows the anterior loop.
At Yunbo Gou in Shiqu County, Sichuan, six individuals were captured in alpine grassland at 4,200–4,700 m during July and August 2014.
The underside is slate grey washed with greyish white. The short tail is about one-third of the combined head-and-body length.
