Description

Sorex daphaenodon Thomas, 1907 —Siberian Large-toothed Shrew

Sorex daphaenodon Thomas, 1907b p.407; Type locality- Sakhalin Island, Russia; Han, 2004a p.31.

Range: A specimen of S. daphaenodon collected at Mt. Baekdu in North Korea in 2001 represents the only record in Korea (Ohdachi & Han 2005; Fig. 11). S. daphaenodon inhabits moist and humid areas in mixed forest (conifer and broad-leaved forests) over much of its range and may also occupy birch groves in the wooded steppe.

Remarks: The Siberian large-toothed shrew is rare in Korea. Three subspecies (S. d. daphaenodon, S. d. sanguinidens, and S. d. scaloni) have been reported but the subspecies inhabiting Korea remain unstudied. Additional research around Mt. Baekdu is warranted to define the status of this species in Korea.
