Subspecies Condylura cristata subsp. nigra Smith 1940

Discussion: Reviewed by Peterson and Yates (1980, Mammalian Species No. 129) who included parva as a subspecies. However, Hartman (in Wilson and Ruff, 1999) stated that nigra is a synonym of parva , in which case nigra has priority. Karyotype has 2n=34, FN = 64 ( Yates and Schmidly, 1975).
