TYPE LOCALITY:
"

River
, tributary of Mekong
River
(= Lancang Jiang)
.
DISTRIBUTION: Known only from the type locality.
COMMENTS: Type species of subgenus
Eurosorex
Stroganov, 1952
. Known from a single specimen, until near-topotype (National Museum of Natural History - 449080) obtained in 1987. Regarded as a subspecies of
thibetanus
by some authors (
Dolgov and Hoffmann, 1977
;
Hoffmann, 1987
) or included in
buchariensis
by others (
Corbet, 1978c
;
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
.
