Description

Murina suilla [Temminck, 1840]

Vespertilio suillus Temminck, 1840: 224, pl. 56; Tapos, Java, INDONESIA (Collector unknown; Type unknown) [82].

Murina suilla [163].

Common English name: Lesser Tube-nosed Bat

Barcode Index Number: DNA barcodes recorded as M. suilla are associated with four BINs, BOLD: AAE 0000, BOLD: AAE 0001, BOLD: AAE 0003 and BOLD:ABX8091 but there are no DNA barcodes from Peninsular Malaysia.

Remarks: Simmons [98] recognises two subspecies: M. s. suilla (type locality: Java) and M. s. canescens (type locality: west Sumatra). Whether the two clusters suggested by our NJ analysis (S8 Fig) represent the two subspecies remains to be determined.

IUCN status: Least Concern

Recorded at: Pahang: Krau Wildlife Reserve [11, 42], Bentong [23], Kuala Atok, National Park [44], Tasik Bera Forest Reserve [56], Cameron Highland [60], Bukit Ibam, Kemasul, Jengka and Klau Besar [100]; Perak: Temengor Forest Reserve [46 – 48], Royal Belum State Park [66], Kledang Saiong Forest Reserve [101]; Perlis: Wang Kelian State Park [50]; Selangor: Bukit Kutu Wildlife Reserve [51], Ulu Gombak [53, 54]; Kedah: Ulu Muda Forest Reserve [57], Bukit Hijau [100]; Kelantan: Air Panas-Gua Musang [61], Gunung Stong State Park [100]; Melaka: Unspecified [68]; Johor: Gunung Panti [100]; Negeri Sembilan: Gunung Angsi Forest Reserve [100].
