Discussion: This species is usually credited to Müller, 1840 in Temminck, Verh. Nat. Gesch. Nederland. Overz. Bezitt., Zool., Zoogd. Indisch. Archipel., p. 42, but an earlier citation is Temminck, 1836 in von Siebold, Temminck and Schlegel, Fauna Japonica, Coup d'Oeil Faune Iles Sonde Emp. Japan, pp. viii, and Corbet and Hill (1992) noted the still earlier designation cited above. It was further described by Müller and Schlegel, in Temminck, Verh. Nat. Gesch. Nederland. Overz. Bezitt., Zool., Mammalia, p. 172 (and also on p. 175, but not p. 107 as widely cited)[1845], pl. 28[1843]. Synonyms apparently from Borneo and Seram were based on wrongly located specimens ( Groves, 1981 a).
