- Murina tubinaris Scully, 1881 Scully’s tube-nosed bat New material Kachin State: Namdee Hill, 11.4.2003, 1 ♂ (MA030411:17). Previous records from Myanmar Kachin State: Nam Tamai Valley (Bates and Harrison, 1997). Comments The two recent specimens from Myanmar are both relatively small (Tables 1 and 2) when compared to those from India included in Bates and Harrison (1997). However, in all other characters they are comparable and are included in the nomi- nate race M. t. tubinaris. The hairs of the dorsal pelage are tri-coloured with dark grey tips, light grey mid-parts and dark grey roots; on the ventral surface the hair tips are pale with contrasting dark grey roots. The ears are broadly rounded and with a small emargination on their posterior borders. In the lower dentition, P 2 is about half the crown area of the trigonid of M 1. Like M. cyclotis, we consider this species a forest specialist. The recent speci- mens from Namdee Hill are the first col- lected in Myanmar since those of Ronald Kaukback from Kachin State in 1933 (Hill, 1962).
