Anderson's shrew is a medium-sized shrew, light grey with yellow fur around the throat and chest, comparatively large ears and a tail about 50–70% of the body length. It is widespread in India, Nepal and Pakistan, and possibly Bangladesh (Wikipedia, general species account).
It has been found in gardens and grassy embankments near watercourses, under piles of brushwood in forest plantations, at the bases of stone walls in Kathiawar, and in desert and arid country. As far as is known, its habits are largely nocturnal and solitary, and breeding may extend throughout the year (Wikipedia, general species account).
