Range: The distribution of C. shantungensis covers the Korean Peninsula and most Korean islands ( Fig. 8 View FIGURE 8 ; 3 View FIGURE 3 rd National Nature-Environmental Survey 2006–2013 unpublished electronic data).

Remarks: Although C. shantungensis was regarded as a subspecies of C. suaveolens, Jiang and Hoffmann (2001) demonstrated morphological differences between C. shantungensis and C. suaveolens and treated C. suaveolens shantungenis as a separate species with the population in East Asia referred to C. shantungensis , as originally described by Miller (1901). Genetic investigations using mtDNA ( Ohdachi et al. 2004) and nuclear genes ( Dubey et al. 2008) distinguished C. shantungensis from C. suaveolens .

In Korea, Mori (1937) differentiated the Asian lesser white-toothed shrew on Ulleung Island from the peninsula population, C. s. coreae Thomas, 1907 and recognized it as the Subspecies C. s. utsuryoensis Mori, 1937 . Although the population on Jeju Island was considered a subspecies of C. dsinezumi or C. russula, Iwasa et al. (2001) identified the population of white-tooted shrew on Jeju Island as C. shantungensis qeulpartis Kuroda, 1934 ( Jo et al. 2012).

Conservation status: Although the North Korean government listed this species as ‘Rare’ (MAB National Committee of DPR Korea 2002), the South Korean government deemed C. shantungensis as ‘Least Concern’ (NIBR 2012).
