(James Smith) 1926 Findley, James Smith Speciation of the Wandering Shrew Produced by Chris Curnow, Tom Cosmas, Joseph Cooper and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Speciation of the Wandering Shrew" by James S. Findley is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century. This work delves into the biological relationships and speciation of the wandering shrew, particularly focusing on the species group "Sorex vagrans-obscurus". It examines geographic variations and specific taxonomic features of different subspecies within this group, highlighting the complexities of their classification and ecological adaptations. The opening of the book presents an introduction to the study's objectives, emphasizing the need to clarify the relationships between various shrew species. It outlines the historical context of the "Sorex vagrans" complex, mentioning previous taxonomic confusion and the contributions of earlier researchers. The author acknowledges the extensive research effort, noting that thousands of museum specimens were analyzed to assess variations based on factors such as geography and age. This early discussion sets the stage for a deeper dive into the methods and findings that map out the evolutionary relationships among these small mammals.
