Abstract
In a previous report (Kadosaki et al. 2002) the authors reported the capture of three Crocidura dsinezumi during August 2001 in the area of the Koibokushushibichari River at approximately 320 meters above sea level. Following this report, in August 2002, a female Crocidura dsinezumi was captured at 320 meters above sea level and a further two males were captured between 400〜470 meters above sea level in the area of the Koibokushushibichari River. This was the first reported capture of a female Crocidura dsinezumi in Hokkaido. The six specimens captured by the authors differed a little morphologically from and the five specimens captured by others in that the head and the body lengths of those captured by the authors were shorter, and the tail and teeth row lengths were longer.
