The results of allozymic, morphologic and morphometric studies performed on three parapatric shrews of the genus Sorex from northern Italy are presented. These data clearly indicate: (1) Sorex samniticus is genetically well differentiated from S. araneus and S. arunchi, displaying a high mean value of genetic distance in comparison with the other two species (D = 0.463). (2) S. araneus and S. arunchi display low values of genetic distance (D = 0.007) and the latter shows lower levels of genetic variability. Altough no fixed allele difference was observed, an exclusive allele (Lap-296) is present in S. arunchi at low frequence, another one (Pgm-196) is rare in S. araneus and quite frequent in S. arunchi, and several alleles (12) of S. araneus are missing in S. arunchi. In S. araneus some of these alleles are quite frequent. (3) Strong morphometric differences between S. araneus and S. arunchi permit to distinguish these parapatric shrews with great accuracy, also in some cases of marginal sympatry. These evidences support the hypothesis that S. arunchi might be a recent (end of Pleistocene-lower Holocene) relict of the subgenus Sorex s. s.

Note on the systematic status of shrews of the Sorex araneus group in NW Anatolia

Macholan M., Filippucci M. G., Slivkova L. and Simson S. 1999. Note on the systematic status of shrews of the Sorex araneus group in NW Anatolia. Acta Theriologica 44: 101-106. Although it was assumed that the northern parts of Asia Minor were occupied by the Caucasian shrew, Sorex satunini, some recent findings have cast doubts on the specific status of shrew populations in NW Anatolia. Here, a single shrew from Uludag was studied using enzyme electrophoresis. It was compared to S. araneus from Europe and S. satunini from NE Turkey as well. The results unequivocally classify the animal under study with S. satunini and it is suggested that the common shrew, S. araneus, does not occur either in NW Anatolia or in Asia Minor in general.
