The Sumichrast's harvest mouse is a small rodent with a long tail and large ears. It lives in Central America and feeds on seeds and insects.
The Sumicrast's harvest mouse differs from related species by longitudinal grooves on the upper incisors. It is important for nature because it spreads plant seeds and serves as food for snakes, owls, and other predators.
