Myosorex rumpii Heim de Balsac, 1968 . Bonn. Zool. Beitr., 19:20.

TYPE LOCALITY: Cameroon, "Rumpi-Hills, 1100 mètres" .

DISTRIBUTION: Known only from the type locality.

COMMENTS: The holotype and only known specimen is so unique (Heim de Balsac, 19686, fig. 4) that it is considered to represent a valid species. Heim de Balsac (19686) himself was uncertain about the status of this taxon; while he formally named it M. eisentrauti rumpii, he labeled all figures and the map with " Myosorex rumpii ".
