Status: IUCN - Data Deficient
Comment:
Comments: Subgenus Sorex. Considered as a possible subspecies of asper (Corbet, 1978c) but retained as a full species related to tundrensis by Hoffmann (1987) who also suggested that a specimen from Nepal recorded by Agrawal and Chakraborty (1971) may represent excelsus. However, mtDNA data indicate that excelsus is neither related to asper nor to tundrensis (Fumagalli et al., 1999)
