Type host: “ Rattus vociferans lancavensis ” = Leopoldamys sabanus (Thomas, 1887) —Long-tailed giant rat. Malaysian hosts: Leopoldamys sabanus, Sundamys muelleri (Jentink, 1879).
Malaysian localities: Langkawi Island, Straits of Malacca (Kedah) Peninsular Malaysia (Ferris 1921, Johnson 1964); Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia (Johnson 1964).
Geographical distribution: Peninsular Malaysia and its offshore islands (Durden & Musser 1994; Price & Graham 1997).
Remarks: The adult male and female of Hoplopleura malaysiana were described by Ferris (1921). Johnson (1964) illustrated the male, the female, the paratergal plates and the male genitalia based on specimens collected from the type host and Sundamys muelleri. Johnson (1964) noted that there appeared to be a rigid host specificity between Hoplopleura malaysiana and L. sabanus.
