摘要：

A specimen of Merriam's Shrew (Sorex merriami) and three specimens of Preble's Shrew (Sorer preblei) were captured in pitfall traps set for terrestrial arthropods in the southern Okanagan Valley of British Columbia from 1995-1998. They represent the first captures of these mammals in Canada. The records are 130-300 km north of the nearest populations in Washington, but this distributional pattern probably reflects inadequate sampling. Both species were captured in shrub-steppe grassland habitats. Five species of shrews occur in the southern Okanagan Valley. To what extent they are syntopic in grassland habitats is unknown.
