SPECIES Nesiotites hidalgo
Author: | Bate, 1945. | Citation: | Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., 11, 11: 742. | Common Name: | Balearic Shrew | Type Locality: | Spain, Balearic Isls, E Mallorca, Cap Ferrutx. | Distribution: | Mallorca, Menorca, and Menorca (Reumer, 1982). | Status: | Extinct. | Comments: | Vanished in historical times (Reumer, 1980b). The morphology of the species was described in detail by Reumer (1980a). The epithet hidalgoi, as used by Alcover et al. (2000) in the combination Asoriculus hidalgoi, is an unjustified emendation. |
