Abstract	Populations of small-eared shrews inhabiting the northern Cor- dillera Oriental of Colombia and adjoining Venezuelan highlands in the vicinity of Paramo de Tama have been referred alternatively to Cryptotis thomasi or Cryptotis meridensis. Morphological and morphometiical study of this popu- lation indicates that it belongs to neither taxon, but represents a distinct, pre- viously unrecognized species. I describe this new species as Cryptotis tamensis and redescribe C meridensis. Recognition of the population at Paramo de Tama as a separate taxon calls into question the identities of populations of shrews currently represented only by single specimens from Cerro Pintado in the Sierra de Perija, Colombia, and near El Junquito in the coastal highlands of Vene- zuela.
