The red-toothed shrews of the subfamily Soricinae are one of three living subfamilies of shrews, along with Crocidurinae and Myosoricinae. In addition, the family contains the extinct subfamilies Limnoecinae, Crocidosoricinae, Allosoricinae and Heterosoricinae. These species are typically found in North America, northern South America, Europe and northern Asia. The enamel of the tips of their teeth is reddish due to iron pigment. The iron deposits serve to harden the enamel and are concentrated in those parts of the teeth most subject to wear.

Ward's trogon is a species of bird in the family Trogonidae. Its range includes the northeastern parts of the Indian subcontinent stretching eastwards to Southeast Asia. It is found in Bhutan, India, Tibet, and Myanmar. It also has a disjunct population in northern Vietnam, but there are no recent records from there. Its natural habitats are temperate forests and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The shrew gymnure, or shrew hedgehog, is a species of mammal in the family Erinaceidae and is the only extant species in the genus Neotetracus. It is found in China, Myanmar, and Vietnam.
The Chinese mole shrew is one of four species of Asian mole shrew in the genus Anourosorex.
The Asiatic short-tailed shrew is one of three species of shrew in the genus Blarinella. It is in the family Soricidae and is endemic to China.
Blarinella is a small genus of shrews in the subfamily Soricinae of the family Soricidae. It contains the following three species:
The Southeast Asian shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in Cambodia, India, China, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Hodgson's brown-toothed shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in China, India, and Myanmar.
The Himalayan shrew is found in Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, and Nepal, is currently the only species in the genus Soriculus within the tribe Nectogalini, although the species Chodsigoa and Episoriculus, which occur in southeastern Asia, as well as those of the fossil European genus Asoriculus, were formerly included there.
The long-tailed brown-toothed shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Vietnam.
The long-tailed mountain shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in China, Myanmar, Nepal, and Vietnam.
The Lowe's shrew is a species of mammal in the family Soricidae. It is found in China, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam.
The gracile shrew mole is a species of mammal in the family Talpidae. It is endemic to China; populations known from Myanmar likely represent other species.
The inquisitive shrew mole is a species of mammal in the family Talpidae. It is only known from Yunnan province of China, although its range is thought to extend over the border into Myanmar.
The Indochinese short-tailed shrew is a species of mammal of the family Soricidae found in China and Vietnam. The species is a semifossorial red-toothed shrew with a stout body and short, slender tail. Blarinella is distinguished from all other Southeast Asian shrew genera by their long claws, intensive colored red-tipped teeth, and five upper unicuspids. Although this species is classified under Blarinella, recent Cytochrome b analysis suggests this species should be classified under a new genus.
The Ward's red-backed vole is a species of rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is found in China, specifically the north-western area of Yunnan Province. It is sometimes considered a subspecies of Eothenomys chinensis, but most zoologists consider it to be a separate species due to the noticeably shorter tail and hind feet.
The Indochinese shrew is a species of white-toothed shrew native to Southeast Asia. It was first identified in 1922 by Herbert C. Robinson and C. Boden Kloss. The species is often taxonomized as a subspecies Horsfield's shrew, but bears a different range, occurring in Myanmar, Vietnam, and the Yunnan province of China. C. indochinensis is on the smaller end of shrews, with dark brownish gray fur and a long, slender tail.
