Burma, Ceylon, Borneo, Indonesia (Java), Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Vietnam: Nghệ An (Phủ Quỳ)— Niviventer tenaster (= R. niviventer lotipes), Rattus tanezumi (= R. flavipectus, R. f. molliculus), Quảng Trị (Vĩnh Linh)— Rattus exulans (Peale) (= R. r. concolor), Rattus losea (= R. r. exiguous), Rattus tanezumi (=R. f. molliculus, R. r. sladeni) (Schluger et al. 1960b; Grochovskaja 1967); Cao Bằng (Ba Bể), Kon Tum, Lâm Đồng (Bảo Lộc)— Tupaia belangeri (= Tupaia glis), Rattus niviventer, Maxomys moi (= Rattus alticola) (Maxomys alticola (Thomas) is endemic species in North Borneo, in Vietnam Maxomys moi inhabits mountainous regions) (Chau et al. 2007; Stekolnikov 2021). Hosts with no locality indicated: Rattus vinhlinh (?), Rattus rattus (= R. r. wrougthoni), Rattus tanezumi (= R. r. khyensis, R. r. tikos) (Schluger et al. 1960b; Grochovskaja 1967)
