174. Rhinolophus rex G. M. Allen, 1923 View in CoL

Common name: King Horseshoe Bat

Myanmar name:

Distribution: China, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam and Eastern Myanmar (recorded in Kalaw, Shan State; Oo et al. 2017a).

Remarks: The first record by Oo et al. 2017a is regarded as the first country record of Rhinolophus paradoxolophus and represent its considerable western range extension. R. paradoxolophus was generally recognized as a species distinct from R. rex but the two taxa are now considered a single species based on genetic data ( Tu et al. 2023; Wilson and Mittermeier 2019).
