Habitat:
Little is known about the ecology of this species. It is nocturnal and may be arboreal. The diet of Marmosa is largely comprised of insects and fruits but also lizards, bird eggs and small rodents. The second locality where this species was captured is a mixture of forest and bamboo thickets (Solari and Pine 2008).
Range:
This species has only been recorded from three localities in Cuzco, Peru (Gardner 2008, Solari and Pine 2008).
Conservation:
This species has not been recorded from a protected area; although Manu Biosphere Reserve (the Cultural Zone) includes the type locality, and it is very close to the northern records. Further research to assess its distribution and range limits is needed. Additionally, there is a need to research potential threats in the vicinity of the known localities.
