Nectomys rattus is distinguished from other species in the genus by the following combination of characteristics: dorsal fur grayish brown; venter fur pale gray; hind feet lacking hypothenar pads; forefeet with distinct rudiment of thumb with nail; tail scaly but moderately haired; lacrimals contacting the maxillary bone; interparietal much wider than long; and dorsolateral exposition of the exoccipital reduced (Bonvicino and Weksler, 2015; Chiquito et al., 2017). Our specimen conforms to previous descriptions of the species, and its measurements fall within the range of size variation previously documented.
