Subspecies Hemigalus derbyanus subsp. derbyanus Gray 1837

Subspecies Hemigalus derbyanus subsp. boiei Müller 1838

Subspecies Hemigalus derbyanus subsp. minor Miller 1903

Subspecies Hemigalus derbyanus subsp. sipora Chasen and Kloss 1927

Distribution: Burma (peninsular), Indonesia (Sipora Isl, South Pagi Isl, Kalimantan, Sumatra), Malaysia, Thailand.

Conservation: CITES – Appendix II; IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Gervais (1841) was the first to place in Hemigalus. Gray (1849) later considered Paradoxurus derbyanus a junior synonym of Viverra hardwicki Gray (1830), and placed it also in the genus Hemigalea after Jourdan (1837). However, V. hardwicki is a junior synonym of Prionodon linsang Raffles (1821). Synonyms allocated according to D. D. Davis (1962).
