Harvey's duikers are roughly 40 cm (15 in) tall at the shoulder and weigh around 15 kg (33 lb), on average. They have mostly chestnut coats, but their legs and faces are black.

Harvey's duikers live in mountain and lowland forest, where they eat leaves, twigs, fruit, insects, birds eggs, and carrion. Although this duiker is not endangered, it is dependent on protected forestland. As of 2008, this species is of least concern.
