玉灵山（越南昆嵩省）发现了两种白齿鼩鼱新种：Crocidura zaitsevi 和 C. sokolovi。与越南已知的其他鳄鱼物种进行了比较。 Crocidura zaitsevi 体型非常小，只能与越南中部描述的 C. kegoensis 相媲美，并以其中等长的尾巴和颅骨特征而著称。 Crocidura sokolovi 的大小与 C. attenuata 相似，但皮毛颜色、相对较长的尾巴以及颅骨和牙齿特征有所不同。这两个新物种目前仅来自玉灵山。
Two new species of white-toothed shrews, Crocidura zaitsevi and C. sokolovi are described from Ngoc Linh Mountain (Kon Tum Province, Vietnam). Comparisons are provided with other species of Crocidura known to occur in Vietnam. Crocidura zaitsevi is very small in size, comparable only to C. kegoensis described from Central Vietnam and distinguished by its moderately long tail and cranial features. Crocidura sokolovi is similar in size to C. attenuata but differs in pelage colour, relatively longer tail, and cranial and dental features. Both new species are currently known only from Ngoc Linh Mountain.
