Identifying Norwegian shrews (Soricidae) from non-dental mandibular characters
A method for discriminating between 6 species of Norwegian shrews (Soricidae) based on a few characters in the lower mandible is described. Length, height, and one angle were measured in cleaned mandibles (n = 297). When plotting angle/length on height,

Supplementary Material for: Chromosome Evolution in Eulipotyphla
We integrated chromosome painting information on 5 core-insectivora species available in the literature with new Zoo-FISH data for Iberian shrew (Sorex granarius) and Altai mole (Talpa altaica). Our analysis of these 7 species allowed us to determine the

Regional variation in the size of the common shrew Sorex araneus in Norway
We analyzed variation related to region, age, and sex in the length and height of the mandible of the common shrew Sorex araneus in Norway (n = 261), with some notes on the length of the tail and on the body weight. Specimens were classified by four age
