Hutchison (1968), Storch and Qiu (1983), Hutterer (1993a), and other authors included also Condylurini and Scalopini, which are shifted here into Scalopinae, based on the the mtDNA phylogeny of Shinohara et al. (2001). The former Desmaninae are downgraded to tribal level, and a new tribe is proposed for the Neurotrichus lineage.
