Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
The Cape elephant shrew (Elephantulus edwardii),[1][2] also known as the Cape rock elephant-shrew[3][4] or Cape rock sengi,[3] is a species of elephant shrew in the family Macroscelididae. It is endemic to South Africa, although it is a relatively common animal. Its natural habitat is rocky areas.[3] Elephant shrews are not closely related to other species of shrews and to rodents such as mice.[2] E. edwardii has been observed to be a non-flying mammal pollinator of the pagoda lily (Massonia bifolia). Elephant shrews are floral pollinators due to their largely insectivorous diet.[5] Elephant-shrews are pollinators of Hyobanche atropurpurea.[6] It uses its long slender tongue to feed on the pagoda lily's nectar while getting the lily's pollen on its long nose.[4] E. edwardii is also a pollinator of Protea sulphurea.[7]
