Subspecies: :

Subspecies Myotis siligorensis subsp. siligorensis Horsfield 1855

Subspecies Myotis siligorensis subsp. alticraniatus Osgood 1932

Discussion: Reviewed by Bates and Harrison (1997), Bates et al. (1999), and Hendrichsen et al. (2001). Populations from Malaysia and Borneo have not been allocated to subspecies, and the subspecific status of Vietnamese populations is questionable (see Hendrichsen et al., 2001 b).
