White-toothed Shrew. Feimant Quadr. 2. p. 228. 
This seems, from Schrebers figure, to be 
about the size of the common Shrew, and is of a 
dusky or blackish brown above, and white be- 
neath; the two colours pretty distinctly separated 
from each other, even along the tail itself, which 
is rather short : tlie teeth, as the name seems to 
import, remarkably white: this, however, appears 
rather too slight a foundation for a permanent 
trivial name. 
SQUARE-TAILED SHREW. 
Sorex Tetragonurus. ^S". cauda subquadranguta, 
Shrew with subquadrangular tail.

Square-tailed Shrew. Pennant Quadr. 2. p. 228, 
This seems a rather larger species than the 
preceding: its colour is ohve-brown above, and 
pale cinereous beneath : the tail but slightly hairy, 
and inclining to a quadrangular form. This spe- 
cies has no fetid smell.
