Morphologically and genetically, it is sister species to A. middendorffii. Specimens from Bolshoi Shantar Island in the Sea of Okhotsk were suggested to be conspecific with A. gromouvi. If this relationship can be confirmed with nucleotide sequences, then Alexandromys shantaricus named by S. I. Ognev in 1929 predates A. gromovi. Monotypic. Distribution.
