The long-eared gymnure (Otohylomys megalotis) is a eulipotyphlan that is found in Laos. This specific type of gymnure has long ears and a long skull compared to that of others.[2] It is also recognized for its broad forefeet, stout claws, and naked hindfeet.[1] While it was previously lumped in with the dwarf and short-tailed gymnures of the genus Hylomys, it is now placed in its own genus Otohylomys.[3]
