Vernacular Names:
Cockrum's Gray Shrew
.
Distribution:
Arizona

) to C
Sonora

Discussion:
A cryptic species indentified on the basis of cytochrome
b
gene fragments.
Carraway and Timm (2000)
included this new taxon in
crawfordi
and stated that they "found no identifyable morphological differences." Sympatric with
crawfordi
in SE
Arizona
. A karyotype of 2n = 62, FN = 94 reported earlier from Pima County,
Arizona
(
Baker and Hsu, 1970
), may refer to this species, while 2n= 68 and FN = 102 may refer to
crawfordi
. Molecular data also indicate that a third species occurs in
Baja California
(
