Taxonomy

Although the Japanese mountain mole was formerly classified in the genus Euroscaptor, a study published by the American Society of Mammalogists found that they did not truly belong to the genus because of earlier evolutionary divergence from other Euroscaptor species.[2] In 2016, the species was reclassified into the new genus Oreoscaptor.[3][4]

Morphology

The taxonomic position of the species was reassessed in 2016 based on its external and skeletal morphologies. It was found that the muzzle of this species showed a unique groove on the ventral side, separating it from the rest of the moles in the family.[2][3]
