Abstract
The known records of the pygmy white-toothed shrew (Suncus etruscus) in the regions of the Kabardino-Sunzhenskii mountain ridge in North Ossetia and the Terskii mountain ridge in Ingushetia are reviewed. The species identity of these animals is confirmed through dental system and morphometric analyses. The history of studies of this species in the Caucasus region is recovered. As a result of these studies, the faunal list of the Russian Federation is enriched with the pygmy white-toothed shrew.
