Soricidae
Sign in to saveAlso known as shrew family, shrew, shrews
Shrews (family Soricidae) are small mole-like mammals classified in the order Eulipotyphla. True shrews are not to be confused with treeshrews, otter shrews, elephant shrews, West Indies shrews, or marsupial shrews, which belong to different families or orders.
Shrews are tiny, mole-like mammals belonging to the family Soricidae, and they're classified in the order Eulipotyphla. It's important to know that "shrew" is sometimes applied to other unrelated animals—like treeshrews and elephant shrews—so true shrews specifically refer only to members of the Soricidae family.

亞科 麝鼩亞科 Crocidurinae 鼩鼱亞科 Soricinae 非洲白齒鼩亞科 Myosoricinae 鼩鼱科(qú jīng)(学名:Soricidae),又稱尖鼠科[1],是鼩鼱目的一科。其下有鼩鼱亞科。基本上所有鼩鼱都被歸進此科。 鼩鼱是一種體型細小、外貌有點像一種長鼻鼠的哺乳綱動物──雖然兩者的外貌有點相像,但其實並沒有任何關係。鼩鼱的腳有五隻有爪的腳趾。 另外,樹鼩鼱和象鼩鼱雖然名稱上有「鼩鼱」二字,但並不屬於鼩鼱科,而是分別屬於樹鼩目及象鼩目。 鼩鼱在世界的分布很廣泛:在主要的溫帶大地上,就只有大洋洲的新畿內亞、澳大利亞及紐西蘭並沒有原生的鼩鼱;在南美洲,雖然亦有鼩鼱,但主要集中在北部,特別是哥倫比亞一帶。 分類 鼩鼱科動物可分為以下三個亞科[2]: 麝鼩亞科 (Crocidurinae):又名白齒鼩亞科,有9屬208種。 鼩鼱亞科 (Soricinae):有11屬116種。 非洲白齒鼩亞科 (Myosoricinae):有3屬17種。 參考 ^ 方引平. 台灣產食蟲目-鼴鼠科及尖鼠科之鼩鼱亞科介紹. 台灣行政院農業委員會特有生物研究保育中心資料庫自然保育季刊.

Shrews (family Soricidae) are small mole-like mammals classified in the order Eulipotyphla. True shrews are not to be confused with treeshrews, otter shrews, elephant shrews, West Indies shrews, or marsupial shrews, which belong to different families or orders.
Although its external appearance is generally that of a long-nosed mouse, a shrew is not a rodent, as mice are. It is, in fact, a much closer relative of hedgehogs and moles; shrews are related to rodents only in that both belong to the Boreoeutheria magnorder. Shrews have sharp, spike-like teeth, whereas rodents have gnawing front incisor teeth.
