In contrast to the Sibuyan White-toothed Shrew (C. ninoyi), the Negros White-toothed Shrew (C. negrina), and the Panay Whitetoothed Shrew (C. panayensis), the Mindoro White-toothed Shrew hasa thick tail, with numerous bristle hairs along its entire length. Compared to the Mount Malindang White-toothed Shrew (C. grandis), tail is thinner with fewer long hairs on proximal half, hindfeet shorter and heavily pigmented.
