39. Pulau Buton: RMNH 21256. I do not know where on the island this specimen was collected and simply placed a dot randomly within the island’s outline. Sody (1941: 317) collected the animal (‘‘Sody No. 4’’) and initially identified the skin and skull as brevimolaris , but provided no provenance data other than ‘‘Boeton.’’ I verified Sody’s identification, but could not locate more precise locality information.

Thomas (1921: 111) identified BMNH 21.2.9.12 and another example from Mamasa that is currently stored in MZB as ‘‘ Rattus chrysocomus ,’’ but Sody (1941: 315) correctly reidentified the latter as an example of Rattus hoffmanni , which I was able to verify during my study of material at Bogor in the 1970s.
