The first genetic study of the holotype of the Gansu short-tailed shrew, Blarinella griselda Thomas, 1912, is presented. The mitochondrial analysis demonstrated that the type specimen of B. griselda is close to several recently collected specimens from southern Gansu, northern Sichuan and Shaanxi, which are highly distinct from the two species of Asiatic short-tailed shrews of southern Sichuan, Yunnan, and Vietnam, B. quadraticauda and B. wardi. Our analysis of four nuclear genes supported the placement of B. griselda as sister to B. quadraticauda / B. wardi, with the level of divergence between these two clades corresponding * These authors contributed equally to this work and should be considered as co-first authors.

Our analysis of four nuclear genes supported the placement of B. griselda as sister to B. quadraticauda / B. wardi, with the level of divergence between these two clades corresponding to that among genera of Soricinae. A new generic name, Parablarinella, is proposed for the Gansu short-tailed shrew. Karyotypes of Parablarinella griselda (2n = 49, NFa = 50) and B. quadraticauda (2n = 49, NFa = 62) from southern Gansu are described. The tribal affinities of Blarinellini and Blarinini are discussed.

The subfamily Crocidurinae unites white-toothed shrews (Eulipotyphla: Soricidae) and is the largest group of living eulipotyphlans; among them, the genus Crocidura contains approximately half of soricids diversity. Within the Crocidura endemics of Central and West Asia, species group "pergrisea" retains relentless interest. In this context, a major question is the taxonomic position and validity of an Armenia endemic Crocidura armenica, which since 2014 has been excluded from the list of Mammal Species of the World. In this study, we obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of C. armenica from a holotype. In addition, we determined partial mitochondrial genomes of a Pamir Mountains endemic C. serezkyensis and of a white-toothed shrew with unclear taxonomic status: Crocidura cf. pergrisea from Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan. The phylogenetic analysis with the inclusion of the mitogenome sequences of the 28 species showed the closest position of C. armenica and Crocidura cf. pergrisea, with a sister position of the C. serezkyensis specimen.
