Crocidura pullata Miller, 1911 . Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 24:241.

TYPE LOCALITY: Kashmir, Kotihar, 7,000 ft .

DISTRIBUTION: Kashmir, India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yunnan (China), Thailand, full range unknown.

SYNONYMS: rapax, vorax.

COMMENTS: The name pullata is provisonally used as a label to include the Asian populations of what has been called russula by Jenkins (1976) and many other authors. It can be seen from the measurements provided by Jameson and Jones (1977) that the forms pullata, rapax and vorax differ from the European russula by a longer tail; all have been assigned to the West European species; see Lekagul and McNeely (1977), among others.
