Range of the Indochinese shrew, derived from the IUCN Red List[2] |
The Indochinese shrew (Crocidura indochinensis) is a species of white-toothed shrew native to Southeast Asia. It was first identified in 1922 by Herbert C. Robinson and C. Boden Kloss.[3] The species is often taxonomized as a subspecies Horsfield's shrew, but bears a different range, occurring in Myanmar, Vietnam, and the Yunnan province of China .[4]
Description
C. indochinensis is on the smaller end of shrews, with dark brownish gray fur and a long, slender tail.[5] No specific data is available for body weight. However, it has a slender tail and an intermediate size between the larger Voracious shrew (Crocidura vorax) and smaller Chinese white-toothed shrew (Crocidura rapax).[6]
