The purpose of this report is to make clear the biological relationships between the shrews of the Sorex vagrans-obscurus "species group." This group as defined by H. H. T. Jackson (1928:101) included the species Sorex vagrans, S. obscurus, S. pacificus, S. yaquinae, and S. durangae. The last mentioned species has been shown (Findley, 1955:617) to belong to another species group.

The position of the vagrans group in relationship to other members of the genus will be discussed. Less
