This small marsupial occurs in separated populations in Western Australia. It hunts insects at night and nests in vegetation or hollows.
Its back is light grey with a slightly grizzled look. It has white patches behind the ears and white underparts. The tail is no longer than the body, grey above and white below.
It hunts at night for invertebrates. Research is limited, but the guide says it probably nests in a hollow log, dense shrub, or grass.
