Treatment

Scalopinae Gill 1875 , Bull. Geol. Geogr. Surv., 1 (2): 106.

Synonyms: Scalopeae Trouessart 1879 ; Scalopes Gill 1875 ; Scalopes Dobson 1883 .

Genera: 5 genera with 7 species in 2 tribes:

Tribe Condylurini Gill 1875

Genus Condylura Illiger 1811 (1 species with 2 subspecies)

Tribe Scalopini Gill 1875

Genus Parascalops True 1894 (1 species)

Genus Scalopus E. Geoffroy 1803 (1 species with 16 subspecies)

Genus Scapanulus Thomas 1912 (1 species)

Genus Scapanus Pomel 1848 (3 species with 16 subspecies)

Discussion: Formerly included in the Talpinae , but Shinohara et al. (2003) convincingly showed that Condylura , Parascalops , Scalopus and Scapanus form a monophyletic clade distinct from the Talpinae , a conclusion reached earlier by Thomas (1912 c).
