Chimarrogale phaeura Thomas 1898 , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 7, 2: 246.

Type Locality: Malaysia, Sabah, "Saiap, Mount Kina Balu".

Vernacular Names: Bornean Water Shrew.

Distribution: Streams in tropical forest of island of Borneo ( Malaysia and Indonesia).

Conservation: IUCN – Endangered.

Discussion: Medway (1977) considered phaeura as a subspecies of himalayica but Corbet (1978 c) and Jones and Mumford (1971) maintained styani and phaeura as separate species. Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1966:87) included sumatrana in this species, but Gureev (1979:458) listed it as a distinct species, a view followed by Hutterer (1993 a).
