VII. CENTETIDAE. 

 SUBFAMILIES. 



1. Centetids with a squat form, rudimentary tail, and well-defined spines developed 

 in pelage. Skull not constricted behind the orbits; with the squamosal bones 

 expanded outwards and backwards. Teeth: Pm., lEij-; I., t=ii X 2 (Pm., f; 

 I.,f; or Pm., H; I., |; orPm., f; I., f ; or Pm., |; I., |). — Peculiar to Mad- 

 agascar. 



CENTETINAE. (A, ) 



2. Centetids with a protracted form, elongated tail, and no distinct spines in pelage. 

 Skull slightly constricted behind the orbits ; with the squamosal bones expanded 

 outwards and forwards. Teeth: Pm., -|-; I., |X2. — Peculiar to West Indies. 



SOLENODONTINAE. (B. ) 



* Recherches sur les mammif^res, pp. 255-259, 1872. The groups ending in " inse," 

 named by Edwards, are not subfamilies, (nor even of the value of "groups,") as under- 

 stood in this article.

This genus is undoubtedly congeneric with Neosorex, Baird, and includes at least two 

 species, viz: (1) Hydrogale palustris--=Sorex paliish'is. Rich.; (with which Sorex Jimbripes, 

 Bachman, notwithstanding the discrepeucies between the descriptions, is perhaps identi- 

 cal,) and (2) Hydrogale navigator^^Neosorex navigator, Baird.
