) but averages slightly larger in size and cranial measurements than Southern Short-tailed Shrews from northern Florida. Pelage of the Everglades Short-tailed Shrew is short, soft, velvety, and mole-like. Dorsal pelage is slate grayish black, with silvery tinge; ventral pelage is slightly paler. There is a bare patch oflightly colored skin around diminutive eyes. Ears are very small and completely concealed by fur; vibrissae are long and white. Tail is less than 30% of head-body length, hairy, and similar in color to dorsal pelage, with small tuft at end. Feet are short and broad, with long claws, and are paler than rest of body. Hindfeet are darker than forefeet. Females have three pairs of inguinal mammae. Characteristic of the genus, the Everglades Short-tailed Shrew has five unicuspid teeth and significantly larger and angular skull than other shrews. All species of

Similar to the Northern Short-tailed Shrew (B. brevicaudus), the Everglades Short-tailed Shrew eats arthropods, mollusks, earthworms, and fungi but also caterpillars and turtle eggs. Its ability to kill and consume young mice of small species has also been confirmed, indicating that they might have venomous saliva similar to the Southern Short-tailed Shrew.
