Discussion: Eurasian species revised by Jenkins (1976), Indomalayan and Philippine species by Heaney and Ruedi (1994) and Ruedi (1995), Chinese species by Jiang and Hoffmann (2001). Phenetic and Phylogenetic relationships of African and Palearctic species studied by Butler et al. (1989), Maddalena (1990) and McLellan (1994), and of Asian and Indomalayan species by Heaney and Ruedi (1994), Ruedi (1996), and Ruedi et al. (1998). Karyotypes of SE Asian species described by Ruedi and Vogel (1995), those of Mediterranean isls shrews by Vogel et al. (1990), and of African shrews by Schlitter et al. (1999). No formal subgenera are recognized here, although the type species of proposed subgenera are indicated. For synonyms see Allen (1939), Heim de Balsac and Meester (1977) and Hutterer (1986a).
