    Abstract:

    We collected three adult samples from Daweishan Natural Reserve, Pingbian (22°53′59″N, 103°41′23″E, 2 088 m above sea level) and Banbianqing, Funing (23°28′11″N, 105°35′59″E, 1 442 m above sea level). We compared the morphological measurement of our samples with topotype specimen (Table 1, Fig. 1 and 2), and established the phylogenetic relationship using Cyt b sequences (Fig. 3). The results showed that the shape of tail and hind feet was similar with topotype specimens. The P-distance of Cyt b between them was only 1.6%. We confirmed that these three samples belong to Taiwanese Gray Shrew (Crocidura tanakae), which were the first record in Yunnan Province. The habitat of collection locations was the junction of primary and secondary forest and deciduous monsoon forest.
