Character 12. A2 (crown): posterocrista direction and lingual basin shape: posterocrista crosses a crown diagonally, lingual basin rounded (0); posterocrista crosses a crown diagonally, lingual basin elongated (1); posterocrista crosses a crown longitudinally, lingual basin elongated (2); inapplicable (-).
Remarks: Unordered. This transformation series is similar to [character 7]. Outgroup Sorex species and three ingroup species (S. megalura, S. murinus, C. obscurior) display a diagonal directed posterocrista and rounded lingual (posterolingual) basin (Character 012: A). Outgroup Neomys species and five ingroup species (C. olivieri, C. yaldeni, C. lasiura, C. sapaensis, D. pulchellum) bear a longitudinal directed posterocrista and elongated narrow lingual basin (Character 012: D). Most ingroup species bear a diagonal directed posterocrista and elongated narrow lingual basin (Character 012: B). This character is inapplicable for M. okuensis (Character 007: C) due to the posterolingual cusplet presence. The cusplet of A2 is absent in S. johnstoni but again appearance on A3 (see below). For details see S8.
