Character 20. A3 (root): second root development: one main radicular pulpal canal without an anterior radicular canal (0); one main radicular canal with an anterior radicular canal (1); one main radicular canal and developed anterior radicular canal (2); inapplicable (-).
Remarks: Unordered. This transformation series is similar to [character 11]. Outgroup Sorex species and most ingroup species without a second root remnant of A1 (Character 020: A). Six ingroup species, S. etruscus, S. megalura, S. murinus, C. jouvenetae, C. olivieri, C. zaitsevi display weakly developed the second root remnant. This state determined by the presence of the anterior radicular pulpal canal, which connected to the main canal like a loop (Character 020: B). Outgroup Neomys species and four ingroup species, C. obscurior, C. yaldeni, C. phanluongi, C. sapaensis bear well-developed anterior radicular pulpal canal of A1, which separated from the main canal; in addition, the second root is more expressed (Character 020: C). This character is inapplicable for D. pulchellum due to two-toothed dental formula [character 4, st. 3]. For details see S8.
