New record
New record to Sumatra, Lampung Province: Way Canguk Forest.
Remarks
Two adults of K. krauensis were collected by previous researchers from Way Canguk Forest (MZB 31480, 34995). This is the first record of this small Kerivoula species in Sumatra. The records extend the distribution of K. krauensis to the Greater Sunda islands after it was first described from Peninsular Malaysia ( Francis et al., 2007). It is distinguished from all known Kerivoula species in Sumatra by darker coloration and golden shiny tipped fur on upperparts ( Yasuma et al., 2003; Francis et al., 2007) and from Phoniscus atrox by lack of a notch near the base of tragus at external margin and lack of a groove on the canine.
