Sorex (Sorex) kozlovi Stroganov 1952 , Byull. Moskow Ova. Ispyt. Prir. Otd. Biol., 57: 21.

Type Locality: China, E Tibet (= Qinghai), Dzechu (Za Qu) River, tributary of Mekong River (= Lancang Jiang).

Vernacular Names: Kozlov's Shrew.

Distribution: SE Tibet ( China).

Conservation: IUCN – Critically Endangered.

Discussion: Subgenus Sorex , S. minutus group. Type species of subgenus Eurosorex Stroganov, 1952 . Known for long from a single specimen, until a near-topotype ( USNM 449080) was obtained in 1987 ( Hoffmann, 1996 a). Regarded as a subspecies of thibetanus by some authors ( Dolgov and Hoffmann, 1977; Hoffmann, 1987, 1996 a, b) or included in buchariensis by others ( Corbet, 1978 c; Gureev, 1979). Hutterer (1979) recognized inconsistencies in the various published figures and descriptions of the same holotype specimen and regarded kozlovi as a doubtful taxon; see also under buchariensis and thibetanus .
