The Chinese white-toothed shrew is a small, long-snouted insectivore with brownish-grey fur, small eyes and unpigmented tooth enamel. It occurs in central and southern China. Available species accounts associate it with forest, scrub and grassland, where it searches through leaf litter and low vegetation for insects and other small invertebrates. Detailed measurements and reproductive information remain limited. (Wikipedia, general species account)
