Animalia > Chordata > Mammalia > Soricomorpha > Soricidae > Sorex > Sorex coronatusSorex coronatus (Millet's Shrew; crowned shrew)Synonyms: Sorex coronatus coronatus; Sorex coronatus euronotus The crowned shrew or Millet's shrew (Sorex coronatus) is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Liechtenstein, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, and the British island of Jersey.

However it has a different karyotype, is slightly smaller, and has small morphological differences, such as a longer rostrum (upper tooth-row and mandible) relative to length of skull. |
