There is doubt about the collection locality of the holotype, as Dobson (1888) stated that the exact locality was unknown but gave the habitat as the Madras Presidency, India. Blanford (1888: 240) surmised that this specimen was probably obtained from the Palni or Travancore Hills in the Madras Presidency; subsequently Blanford (1891: 602) explained that the specimen had been brought to the donor, Dr. F. Day, from Trichur, Cochin. All of these localities are in southern India; the vegetation consists of tropical, high altitude ever- green rain forests. Both Nilgiri and Palni are hill forests, isolated from each other by the surrounding lower lying country which consists of a mixture of secondary forests (most of which are cultivated by man) and cleared, cultivated land (mainly tea and potatoes) and scrub. Heim de Balsac & Lamotte (1957) stated that Sylvisorex and Suncus ecologically differ in Africa, Suncus occurring in semi-arid savanna, while Sylvisorex inhabits wetter forests (although one species, S. megalura — which has clear scansorial adaptations [Vogel 1974, Hutterer 1985] —, has been recorded in grassland). The combination of features such as a long tail, elongat
