The order Soricomorpha ("shrew-form") is a biological clade within the class of mammals. The Southern Short-tailed Shrew ( Blarina carolinensis) is a small gray short-tailed Mammal as the name implies Chordates ( Phylum Chordata) are a group of Animals that includes the Vertebrates together with several closely related Invertebrates Mammals ( class Mammalia) are a class of Vertebrate Animals characterized by the presence of Sweat glands, including sweat glands See also Evolution of mammals Eutheria ("true beast" are a group of Mammals consisting of Placental mammals plus all extinct Mammals Laurasiatheria is a Clade of rank Cohort or super-order within the Placentalia (living or Eutheria (Placentals and their extinct ancestors The members of the genus Nesophontes, sometimes called West Indies shrews, were members of the extinct family of mammals Nesophontidae in Solenodons are Nocturnal, burrowing Insectivorous Mammals belonging to the family Solenodontidae. The family Talpidae includes the moles and the Desmans small insectivorous mammals of the order Soricomorpha. This article is about the taxonomic rank for the sequence of species in a taxonomic list see Taxonomic order In scientific classification used A clade is a taxonomic group comprising a single Common ancestor and all the descendants of that ancestor A class is the Taxonomic rank in the Biological classification of organisms in Biology below phylum and above order. Mammals ( class Mammalia) are a class of Vertebrate Animals characterized by the presence of Sweat glands, including sweat glands In previous years it formed a significant group within the former Insectivora order. The order Insectivora (from Latin insectum "insect" and vorare "to eat" is a now-abandoned biological grouping within the However, that order was shown to be paraphyletic and various new orders were split off from it, including Afrosoricida (tenrecs and golden moles), Macroscelidea (elephant shrews), and Erinaceomorpha (hedgehogs and gymnures), leaving just four families as shown here, leaving Insectivora empty and disbanded. In Phylogenetics, a group of organisms is said to be paraphyletic if the group contains its most recent common ancestor but does not contain all The order Afrosoricida (a Latin-Greek compound name which means "looking like African shrews" contains the Golden moles of southern Africa and Golden moles are small insectivorous burrowing Mammals native to southern Africa. Elephant shrews or jumping shrews are small insectivorous Mammals native to Africa, belonging to the Macroscelididae family in the Erinaceidae is the only living family in the order of the Erinaceomorpha. A hedgehog is any of the small spiny Mammals of the Subfamily Erinaceinae and the order Erinaceomorpha. Gymnures, also called Hairy Hedgehogs or Moon Rats, are Mammals belonging to the subfamily Galericinae, in the family Erinaceidae In Biological classification, family ( Latin [1]
