Kerivoula whiteheadi Thomas, 1894: 460 ; Molino, Isabella , northeast Luzaon Island, PHIL- LIPINES (J. Whitehead, collector; BM(NH) 1894.10.9.2) [ 182 ]. Common English name: Whitehead’s Woolly Bat Barcode Index Number: There are no DNA barcodes recorded under this name on BOLD. IUCN status: Least Concern Remarks: Chasen [ 8 ] listed K . whiteheadi as Kerivoula bicolor (now Kerivoula whiteheadi bicolor ) in his “Handlist of Malaysian Mammals”. Recorded at: The holotype of K . whiteheadi bicolor (BM(NH) 3.2.6.91) which was collected in Biserat, Jalor = Yala , Malay Peninsula, which is now the southern tip of Thailand , is the only record from the mainland [ 14 , 74 ]. K . whiteheadi may be expected to occur in Peninsular Malaysia [ 6 , 8 , 9 , 23 ] based on the type locality but is yet to be documented [ 169 ]. K . whiteheadi has been recorded in secondary forests, shrubs and open grasslands, and found roosting in small groups of twenty to thirty individuals among dead leaves by a river [ 14 ].
