Type Locality: "Auf der Reise nach dem Kilimandscharo "; unidentifiable but usually taken as " Kilimanjaro, Tanzania "; see Moreau et al. (1946:395).

Vernacular Names: Peters's Musk Shrew.

Distribution: Known only from the type specimen with unknown origin.

Conservation: IUCN – Critically Endangered.

Discussion: Does not include hildegardeae ; see Demeter and Hutterer (1986:201). A recent examination of the type specimen indicates it might be conspecific with C. cyanea , however, that species is not known from as far north as Tanzania.
