Range: The Ussuri mole commonly inhabits friable soils over most of Korea except remote islands (3 rd National Nature-Environmental Survey 2006–2013 unpublished electronic data; Fig. 16 View FIGURE 16 ).

Remarks: Two subspecies, M. r. robusta Nehring, 1891 and M. r. coreana Thomas, 1907 were recorded in Korea. Based on mitochondrial cytochrome b gene analysis, M. robusta from South Korea clustered with samples from the Russian Far East ( Tsuchiya et al. 2000). Also, the moles of South Korea showed no genetic divergence (rRNA and cytochrome b gene) from moles in northeastern China and Russian Far East, despite considerable morphological differences with M. wogura ( Koh et al. 2012b) . The larger M. r. robusta inhabits alpine environments in extreme northern Korea and the smaller M. r. coreana occupies most of Korea except the extreme North. Hutterer (2005b) regarded M. robusta as a subspecies of M. wogura .
