Type locality. — San Martin de la Vega, Madrid, Spain. 



Oeographical distribution. — Northern and central Spain. 



Diagnosis. — Similar to Neomys milleri, but with longer tail 

 (usually over 55 mm.), and larger hind foot (16 "8 to 18 mm.). 

 MammiB : a 1 — 1, i 4 — 4 = 10. 



Measurements. — Type specimen, male (from Cabrera) : head 

 and body, 73 ; tail, 60 ; hind foot, 17 "5. Average and extremes 

 of nine sj^ecimens from Silos, Burgos, Spain : head and body, 

 83-2 (76-88); tail, 60 (56-61); hind foot, 17-4 (17-18). 

 Adult male and adult female from Barracas, Castellon, Spain : 

 head and body, 99 and 100; tail, 53 and 52; hind foot, 17. 

 For cranial measurements see Table, p. 82. 



Specimens examined. — Tweuty-two, from the following localities in 

 Spaia: Silos, Burgos, 9; La Granja, Segovia, 2; Barracas, Castellon, 2 ; 

 L^rida, 9. 



Remarlcs. — The Spanish water-shrew is well differentiated 

 from Neomys milleri by its longer tail and larger hind foot. As 

 yet no member of the keel-tailed group has been found in the 

 Iberian Peninsula, though it is probable that N. fodiens occurs in 

 the region north of the Ebro, and perhaps also in the Asturias.

Type species. — Sorex etruscus Savi. 



Geographical distribution. — ^Africa and warmer portions of 

 Asia ; in Europe confined to the Mediterranean region. 



Diagnosis. — Like Crocidura (p. 86), but with upper uni- 

 cuspids 4-4, the dental formula : i '"*, c ^i, pm ^3^, m -^"^ = 30. 



Remarlcs. — Although perhaps not forming a natural group, 

 the 30-toothed species of Crocidura may for convenience be
