Erinaceus roumanicus
Eastern hedgehog
Weißbrustigel

Subspecies
The status of the taxon roumanicus is debated. It has previously been considered as a subspecies of Erinaceus concolor. Genetic studies suggest that both taxa are separate species. I consider the matter as not convincingly clear, but accept provisionally the status of roumanicus as a separate species.


Synonyms
Additional German names: Ostigel, Östlicher Igel, Weißbrust-Igel.
