On one of the four volcanic hills of Graciosa (Montaña Amarilla) several bones were found under a resting site of Tyto alba, among which was a skull of a shrew belonging to the genus Crocidura. Further analysis of the remains revealed 22 skulls of Mus sp., 20 of the lizard Tarentola angustimemalis, and several elytra of insects. One of the identified insects {Pimelia lutaria) is a beetle endemic to Fuerteventura, Lanzarote and Graciosa. No other indications for the presence of shrews on Graciosa were found. To confirm the presence of shrews in the Canary Islands the following islands and islets were visited: Lanzarote (9-16 June 1983) Three shrews were captured in the northern part of Lanzarote near the village of Teguise. Traps were set in abandoned cultivated areas along stone walls. Just.
