Suncus fellowesgordoni: Comments
Comment:
Status: IUCN - Endangered
Comment:
Comments: Although usually included in S. etruscus, this taxon represents a species endemic to Sri Lanka (see also Jenkins et al., 1998). Podihik kura Deraniyagala, 1958, which was included in this species by Phillips (1980), does not represent fellowesgordoni, but is more similar to etruscus and included therein
