This is a species of uncertain validity. Edwards says that 

 only the type cf and 9 in the British Museum are synonj-- 

 mouswith malayi, but as other specimens have been recorded 

 from various and widely distributed localities, these latter may 

 represent a valid species, which of course will require a new- 

 name.
