Previous records from Myanmar Mon State and Mandalay Division are included in Bates et al. (2004 b ) . Comments Measurements are included in Tables 1 and 2 . The diagnostic characters, including the greater length of the tibiae and of the second phalanx of the third digits, by which R. stheno can be distinguished from R . malayanus, are discussed in detail in Bates et al. ( 2000 and 2004 b ). First collect- ed in November, 2002, this appears to be a less common species than R. malayanus in Myanmar . The recent record from Kachin State extends its range nearly 250 km to the north in Myanmar . It is also the most north- ern locality for this species from throughout its range in Southeast Asia ( Csorba et al., 2003 ).
