Remarks

This small Kerivoula (FA = 28.9–33.0 mm; BM = 3.5–6.3 g) was caught with harp traps set between 50–732 m a.s.l. in forest. It can be easily distinguished from other Kerivoula species by the yellow and orange skin coloration, and translucent wing membrane ( Kingston et al., 2006). Our captures extend its distribution from central Sumatra to the south.
