Notiosorex cockrumi Baker, O'Neill, and McAliley 2003 View in CoL

Notiosorex cockrumi Baker, O'Neill, and McAliley 2003 View in CoL , Occas. Pap. Mus. Texas Tech Univ., 222: 2.

Type Locality: USA, Arizona, Cochise Co., Leslie Canyon National Wildlife Refuge, T 21S, R 28E Section NW 1/4 20, 4460 ft. (1359 m).

Vernacular Names: Cockrum's Gray Shrew.

Distribution: Arizona ( USA) to C Sonora ( Mexico).

Discussion: A cryptic species indentified on the basis of cytochrome b gene fragments. Carraway and Timm (2000) included this new taxon in crawfordi and stated that they "found no identifyable morphological differences." Sympatric with crawfordi in SE Arizona. A karyotype of 2n = 62, FN = 94 reported earlier from Pima County, Arizona ( Baker and Hsu, 1970), may refer to this species, while 2n= 68 and FN = 102 may refer to crawfordi . Molecular data also indicate that a third species occurs in Baja California ( Baker et al., 2003 a).
