Eulipotyphla Waddell, Okada, and Hasegawa 1999
, 2023 Eulipotyphla Insectivora was a name used extensively for a very diverse group of mammals (e.g., Simpson, 1945), and largely derived from Cuvier (1816 [refer to Roux, 1976 for considering 1816 the publication date, rather than 1817]); elephant shrews at the time were considered members of Sorex, and as such included within Cuvier’s “Musaraignes ...

Vestnik Zoologii, 2016 Abstract The morphology and histological structure of two adult Brandt’s hedgehog, Paraechinus hypomelas, (Brandt, 1836) tongue were examined by light and scanning electron microscopy. On the dorsal surface of the tongue, three types of papillae were observed: filiform, fungiform and vallate papillae.

Insights Into Tribal-Level Adaptive Evolution and Phylogeny in Soricinae From Mitogenome of the Chinese Endemic <i>Sorex cansulus</i>. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study reveals that natural selection is the main force shaping the mitochondrial protein‐coding genes of zokors, with all five populations exhibiting strong purifying selection. Phylogenetic analysis and divergence time estimation strongly support the monophyly of the subfamily Soricinae, leading to key taxonomic revisions, including the ...
