  • In contrast, the mole shrews of the genus Anourosorex are (funnily enough) mole-like burrowers feeding on burrowing insects and earthworms. (varietyoflife.com.au)
  • White-toothed shrews are found in Africa and tropical Asia and make up for lacking the funky tooth pigment of Soricinae by including such creatures as the insanely over-developed hero shrew Scutisorex somereni and the bewildering diversity of the genus Crocidura with in excess of 150 species.

  • The majority of crown-group shrews are divided between the subfamilies Soricinae and Crocidurinae, distinguished by features of the mandibular condyle and of P 4 (Butler 1978). (varietyoflife.com.au)
  • Living shrews are usually divided between two subfamilies, the Soricinae and the Crocidurinae, or the red-toothed shrews and white-toothed shrews respectively (Dubey et al 2007). (varietyoflife.com.au)
  • Type genus of tribe Neomyini Repenning, 1967, for which Reumer (1984:14) used the name Soriculini Kretzoi, 1965. (bucknell.edu)
  • Within the Soricinae, the living tribes Soricini and Neomyini are each found in both Eurasia and the Americas. (varietyoflife.com.au)
  • Many species of Soricinae also have the teeth pigmented red by the deposition of iron in a superficial aprismatic layer over the white enamel (Rose 2006). (varietyoflife.com.au)
  • The genus Raffrayia was first established by Reitter in 1881 for a species found in Ethiopia and since then over twenty species have been recognised. (fieldofscience.com)
  • Raffrayola is restricted to southern Africa whereas Raffrayia sensu stricto is found across the genus' range. (fieldofscience.com)
  • Red-toothed shrews, found in Eurasia and the Americas, are named after one of their most unusual features, red crowns to their teeth due to the deposition of iron in their enamel (this feature has been lost in a few soricine genera). (varietyoflife.com.au)
  • The geographic distribution of the genus has always been in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. (wikipedia.org)
  • Both of these features are derived and these segregate genera may well be expected to be derivatives of Raffrayia . (fieldofscience.com)
  • Asiatic short-tailed red-toothed shrews are commonly referred to the genus Blarinella Thomas, 1911. (pensoft.net)
  • Thomas (1911) considered that this species was more closely allied to the New World genus Blarina rather than to any Old World genus of shrews and assigned the Asian short-tailed shrews to a separate genus, Blarinella . (pensoft.net)

  • The red-toothed shrews (Soricinae) are the most widespread subfamily of shrews, distributed from northern South America to North America and Eurasia. (edu.au)
  • Although there is a consensus about the close relationship between the extinct red-toothed shrew genera Nesiotites and Asoriculus based on morphology, molecular data are necessary to further evaluate the phylogenetic relationships of the Balearic fossils. (edu.au)
