    309. Iranian White-toothed Shrew Crocidura susiana French: Crocidure de Susiane / German: Iran-WeilRzahnspitzmaus / Spanish: Musarana de Iran Other common names: Iranian Shrew, Susiana Shrew Taxonomy. Crocidura susiana Redding & Lay, 1978, 8 km SSW of Dezful (32°19’N, 48°21’E), Khuzestan Province, Iran. Relationship with other shrews from region needs to be assessed by molecular studies. Monotypic. Distribution. Known only from the vicinity of Dezful, Khuzestan Province, SW Iran, but may have a wider distribution. Descriptive notes. Head-body 78-85 mm, tail 56-63 mm, ear 8-9 mm, hindfoot 15-17 mm. No specific data are available for body weight. Condylo-incisive length 20-6— 21 mm. The Iranian White-toothed Shrew is a relatively large shrew. In total length (134-148 mm), it exceeds the other Crocidura species from Iran, e.g. Zarudny’s Whitetoothed Shrew (C. zarudnyi), the Bicolored White-toothed Shrew (C. leucodon), and Guldenstadt’s White-toothed Shrew (CC. gueldenstaedti). A tail ratio of greater than 70% of head-body length separates the Iranian Tail is long and unicolored brown. Whitetoothed Shrew and Zarudny’s White-toothed Shrew from the Bicolored White-toothed Shrew and Guldenstadt’s White-toothed Shrew. Fur on dorsal pelage is warm sepia brown and 5-6 mm long; underparts are gray, washed light brown on the pectoral region and light gray on abdominal, hairs 4-5 mm long; no sharp demarcation between upperparts and underparts. Habitat. Semiarid steppes, banks of almost permanent rivers and brooks with a thick layer of grass, and some shrubs (Tamarix, Tamaricaceae; Populus, Salicaceae; Ziziphus, Rhamnaceae). All seven specimens of the type series of the Iranian White-toothed Shrew were captured together with House Mice (Mus musculus) at three localities in the Susiana Plain that lies between the Zagros Mountains and the Mesopotamian Plain. Elevational range is 100-300 m. Food and Feeding. No information. Breeding. No information. Activity patterns. Iranian White-toothed Shrews are terrestrial and probably nocturnal. Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information. Status and Conservation. Classified as Data Deficient on The IUCN Red List because there is no information available regarding extent of occurrence, area of occupancy, population size or population trends. No specific conservation measures are known to be in place for the Iranian White-toothed Shrew. Bibliography. Hutterer (2005b), Karami et al.

    The Riverine Landscape of Formative and Archaic Susiana (SW Iran); A Suggestion Based on Recent Geoarchaeological Evidence

    The settlement evolution of the Early Neolithic period is considered a milestone in the human cultural history.While the archaeological implications of this period are discussed extensively, the landscape of Early Neolithic Iran has remained underrepresented, mostly due to lack of geoarchaeological investigations. The early periods Formative and Archaic Susiana, attested in several sites in the Susiana plain in southwestern Iran, are of utmostimportance as they bear witness to the first implications of standardization of material culture and intra-regional organization. This paper summarizes our current understanding of these periods as well as their landscape in the seventh and sixth millennia BCE. Then, it proposes a preliminary reconstruction of the landscape in this period based on recent geoarchaeological investigations by the author, applying a combination of different methods such as remote sensing, GIS analysis, and original geoarchaeological data including sediment cores, soil profiles, as well as laboratory analyses including sedimentological and chemical analyses (and lithological description in the field) and OSL dating. The results widen our perspective regarding the region’s hydrology. The Early Neolithic landscape of Susiana seems to have been different from the current one, primarily due to the tangible changes in watercourses and the noticeable differences in the surface soil and vegetation. The results further confirm thatheavy sedimentation of later periods covers most of the surface of this buried landscape including now buried watercourses and small wetlands
