New records on the distribution of the Kamchatka shrew (Sorex camtschaticus Yudin, 1972) in North-East Asia Dokuchaev N.E. P. 12-16 The northeastern limits of the Kamchatka shrew distribution were found to extend much further and include the northeastern territories of the Koryak upland. The new capture points indicate a shift in the range of the species to the east by 500 km from the previously known ones. A distance of only 130 km separates the nearest catching sites of the Kamchatka and Portenko’s shrews.
