Conservation Status

Missing

Last record: 1908

IUCN RedList status: Data Deficient

Grauer's large-headed shrew is only known from the holotype, collected in 1908. However, apparently no thorough surveys have been carried out in this area since (Hutterer, 2008), so the species probably still survives.
