Crocidura batesi Dollman 1915 , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 8, 15: 143.

Type Locality: "Como River, Gabon." .

Vernacular Names: Bate's Shrew.

Distribution: Lowland forest in S Cameroon and Gabon.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Often included in poensis ; specimens from Cameroon and Gabon have been reported as wimmeri ; but see Brosset (1988). Karyotype (2n = 50, FN = 76) identical to that of nigeriae ( Schlitter et al., 1999) . This complex requires a pan-African revision.
