GENUS Paracrocidura

Author:Heim de Balsac, 1956.
Citation:Rev. Zool. Bot. Afr., 54: 137.
Type Species:Paracrocidura schoutedeni Heim de Balsac, 1956.
Comments:Revised by Hutterer (1986c). A study of 16s rRNA sequences placed Paracrocidura in one clade with Crocidura (Querouil et al., 2001). However, unique external and cranial features distinguish the species of Paracrocidura from all other genera.
