Afrosoricida

The clade Afrosoricida contains the golden moles of Southern Africa, the otter shrews of equatorial Africa, and the tenrecs of Madagascar. These three groups of small mammals were for most of the 19th and 20th centuries regarded as a part of the Insectivora or Lipotyphla, but both of those groups, as traditionally used, are polyphyletic.
