The Spectacled Hare-wallaby (Barrow Island) is a stocky marsupial with distinctive bright orange rings around its eyes. It has brown fur above and white fur below. Individuals grow to 47 cm long and weigh up to 4.5 kg. It has a sparsely-haired tail which grows to 49 cm long. The species is generally solitary, though small groups of up to three have been seen feeding together.
This subspecies was formerly distributed on Barrow Island and on Hermite Island in the Montebello Group, Western Australia. It is now restricted to Barrow Island and Boomerang Island, which is joined to Barrow at low tide. As the species occurs only on Barrow and Boomerang Islands, the extent of occurrence can be calculated to be approximately 233 km², the size of Barrow Island.
Young are sexually mature at approximately 12 months of age. Breeding occurs throughout the year, with peaks in March and again in September. Young vacate the pouch at approximately five months.
The subspecies is a nocturnal browser foraging on herbs, grass and fruits, and rarely drinking. Water is metabolized from food, supplemented by dew on early morning foliage. Spectacled Hare-wallabies have the most efficient kidneys of any mammal, with a urine production and water turnover equaling only 5.3% of total body water per day. They also have a nasal moisture retention mechanism, which recycles breath moisture to the stomach. A sphincter muscle structure removes any excess moisture from faecal material.
