List of crocidurines

 * Nominator(s):  Pres N  23:00, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Back with animal list #38, we reach our problem list (and first list) of the problem family in the order Eulipotyphla: shrews part 1! You see, at about 475 species, Eulipotyphla is too big for a list—that's normal. At 408 species, Soricidae (shrews) is also too big (as in templates stop rendering too big)—that's a first for our series, but fortunately it has three subfamilies, so we can break it up like that. And here in our first subfamily list, for Crocidurinae, we have 235 species (which is pushing it on length), and we start right off the bat with... a single genus of 191 species. For reference, that's almost 10% of the species I've covered in this 38-list series, in a single genus. And it's a genus of almost identical tiny shrews; Walker's Mammals of the World doesn't even break them into species, and just lumps pretty much the entire genus into "they're all about the same size and eat the same things. You tell them apart by their back feet and tails." In any case, they're all here, if with fewer pictures than I'd like, and it follows all the conventions we've built up over the last dozens of FLCs. Thanks for reviewing! -- Pres N  23:00, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Nothing to nitpick, but perhaps technical-ish terms of ecosystems/communities such as savannas, shrublands, and grasslands can be linked for unfamiliar readers.
 * That's all I was able to find. An informative and well-structured lists as always. Pseud 14 (talk) 20:49, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Done. -- Pres N  02:46, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

 * C. floweri is missing its habitat which seems to be arable land.
 * Wikilink "supratidal" and "intertidal".
 * That's all I got. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 12:33, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Missed this on my watchlist somehow; both now done. -- Pres N  01:56, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Source review – Source reliability and formattting both look okay throughout the article. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:19, 30 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Image review – Among the sampling of images I checked, there didn't seem to be any issues with licensing etc., and the ones I looked at have alt text. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:23, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
