The Darien pocket gopher (Heterogeomys dariensis) is a species of rodent in the family Geomyidae.

[2] Some authors classify it in the genus Orthogeomys, but later research has allowed this and its related species to be classified in the genus Heterogeomys.

[3] It includes the Thaeler's pocket gopher (H. d. thaeleri), endemic to Colombia as a subspecies.

Previously, this subspecies was considered a separate species.
