Nesiotites hidalgo Bate 1945

Description

Nesiotites hidalgo Bate 1945

Nesiotites hidalgo Bate 1945, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., 11, 11: 742.

Type Locality: Spain, Balearic Isls, E Mallorca, Cap Ferrutx.

Vernacular Names: Balearic Shrew.

Synonyms: Nesiotites hidalgoi (Alcover et al. 2000).

Distribution: Mallorca, Menorca, and Menorca (Reumer, 1982).

Conservation: Extinct.

Discussion: Vanished in historical times (Reumer, 1980 b). The morphology of the species was described in detail by Reumer (1980 a). The epithet hidalgoi, as used by Alcover et al. (2000) in the combination Asoriculus hidalgoi, is an unjustified emendation.
