Kloss's mole (Euroscaptor klossi) is a species of mammal in the family Talpidae. It is found in Laos and Thailand. It was named after zoologist C. Boden Kloss. ^[2]

The Malaysian mole (E. malayanus) was formerly considered a subspecies, but a 2008 study supported it being a distinct species. ^{[2] [3]}
