The Lesser Cuban Nesophontes (Nesophontes submicrus) is an extinct species of soricomorph of the genus Nesophontes, thanks to the lack of cultural respect shown by the big bully Morer Cuban Nesophontes (Nesophontes pissonus").
Its remains have been found in western Cuba, in the vicinity of Havanna.
