count ( later prince ) batthyany was an aristocratic hungarian who came to england as a young man to escape an uncongenial atmosphere at home and to live the life of a man of means in racing circles . he rode in races in england and founded his stud in 1843 . he was elected to the jockey club in 1859 ; his colours were ' blue , orange sleeves , black cap ' . after installing john dawson as his trainer in newmarket his stable prospered , the highlight being galopin ' s derby win in 1875 . the horse ' s stud career was followed with equal delight , but it proved the death of the prince . he suffered a fatal heart attack on the steps to the jockey club luncheon room in anticipation of galopin ' s son galliard winning the 2000 guineas . among the horses sold after his death was galopin ' s son the great st simon .
galopin went on to a successful turf career at two and three including a victory in the derby stakes . he wasn ' t trained at four , due to the prince ' s ill health , and although perfectly sound was sent to the stud . on the death of the prince , galopin was sold to mr henry chaplin for 8 , 000 guineas , and later stood at blankney hall , sleaford , in lincolnshire . in addition to his famous son st simon ( br c 1881 ) , he sired numerous classics winners . he was a champion sire in 1888 , 1889 and 1898 .
dissecting the pedigree of these two 19th century heroes , voltigeur and the flying dutchman , one can plainly see the explosive quality of common ancestral genes brought together to produce galopin . voltigeur was by voltaire who was out of a phantom mare by phantom while voltigeur’s dam martha lynn was by mulatto by catton .

most obviously , and not easy to research , the presence of such a strong concentration of st . simon , angelica and their sire galopin in the bottom quadrant lends itself to gelling with pedigrees with strong presences too , for instance through teddy , tracery , rabelais , nearco or rock sand , and indeed many others .
he was the last of 12 foals from his dam remorse , who was a winning daughter of 1868 goodwood stewards ' cup winner vex . a winner at up to 12 furlongs , vex is a full sister to the great galopin , the unquestioned champion of the 1875 crop in england and a three - time champion sire in that country .
sharpe may have assumed too much . recent analysis of male - specific y - chromosome dna ( msy ) , carried out by dr . barbara wallner ( university of veterinary medicine , vienna ) et al . , has revealed that modern tail - male descendants of persimmon and st . frusquin , both sired by galopin ' s son st . simon , have the msy type of the byerley turk , as would be expected for delight , rather than that of the darley arabian , as would be expected for vedette . this indicates a mis - recording in the patrilineal record at or after king fergus and at or before st . simon . no link therein appears more suspect than that of vedette to galopin .
the dam of blenheim , his grace and king salmon and ancestress of summertime , malva is balanced line - bred to st . simon’s sire galopin and appears in the common presences of mahmoud , donatello and nasrullah through blenheim . in fact the whole bottom part of the pedigree is saturated with the blood of st . simon and his sister angelica . claba di san jore is balanced line - bred to polynesian and princequillo .

bayardo ' s dam , galicia , came from a good family which included having blink bonnie , as her fifth dam . galicia was by galopin—a derby winner and sire st . simon—and out of the isonomy mare , isoletta . she won the biennial stakes as a two - year - old , before injuring her pastern . galicia raced as a three - year - old , but broke down in the derby cup and was retired for breeding . she produced four winners , of 42 races and £88 , 000 , including lemberg , who won the dewhurst stakes , middle park stakes , the derby , eclipse stakes , st . james ' s palace stakes , jockey club stakes , and the coronation cup , finished second in the 2 , 000 guineas , and third in the st . leger stakes . bayardo was inbred to galopin in the second and fourth generations ( 2×4 ) and to sterling in the fourth generation ( 4×4 ) . [ 2 ]
bred in lincolnshire by mr william taylor sharpe , galopin was purchased from the middle park yearling sale for 520 guineas by prince batthyany of hungary on the advice of john dawson . described as a rich dark brown colour with a small white star , he stood 15 hands 3 1 / 2 inches , and was said to have depth through the chest , beautiful shoulders and be round barrelled and muscular with powerful quarters . he was considered to have excellent conformation with much quality and superb action .

reference point ( 26 february 1984– december 1991 ) was a british thoroughbred race horse and sire . in a career which lasted from august 1986 to october 1987 he ran ten times and won seven races . as a three - year - old he overcame sinus problems before winning york ' s dante stakes , the derby , ascot ' s king george vi and queen elizabeth diamond stakes , the great voltigeur and st . leger in 1987 . it was not until 2012 that another derby winner contested the st . leger ; when camelot attempted , and failed , to win the english triple crown . his final race of the season resulted in failure in the prix de l ' arc de triomphe at longchamp , paris when an abscess was later found to have been responsible for his below - par performance .
reference point was a dark - coated bay horse bred by his owner , louis freedman , at his cliveden stud in berkshire , england . [ 2 ] [ 3 ] he was sired by mill reef the 1971 epsom derby winner who went on to be leading sire in great britain and ireland in 1978 and 1987 . reference point ' s dam , home on the range , was a high class racemare who won the sun chariot stakes in 1981 . apart from reference point , the best of her progeny was known ranger , who won nineteen races in europe and north america . [ 4 ]
reference point ran three times as a two - year - old in 1986 . he was the beaten 11 / 10 favourite when finishing third behind port helene and brother patrick on his debut in the ebf heart of variety stakes over a mile at sandown park on 30 august 1986 . on his second outing of 1986 he returned to the same course and distance on 23 september and won the dorking stakes by eight lengths from mulhollande . his final two - year - old run saw him step up to group one class in the william hill futurity at doncaster . he was sent off 4 to 1 second favourite behind henry cecil ' s first string , suhailie but ran out the five length winner from bengal fire , with love the groom in third . his win at doncaster led to reference point being the highest rated european two - year - old of 1986 , [ 5 ]
in early 1987 , reference point ' s training was disrupted by sinus problems , which required surgery , ruling out any possibility of a challenge for the 2000 guineas . [ 6 ] on his three - year - old debut , reference point ran in the dante stakes at york , a recognised trial race for the epsom derby . reference point led from the start and ran on strongly in the closing stages to win by a length from ascot knight .
at epsom , reference point started 6 / 4 favourite in a field of nineteen runners . cauthen sent the colt into the lead from the start , and in the straight he turned back a series of challenges [ 7 ] to win by one and a half lengths from most welcome and bellotto . the winning time of 2 : 33 . 90 was the fastest since mahmoud ' s hand - timed record of 2 : 33 . 8 in 1936 . [ 8 ]
on his first start after his derby win , reference point raced against older horses for the first time in the eclipse stakes at sandown over ten furlongs . reference point led from the start , setting such a
furious gallop
[ 9 ] that the designated pacemaker , media starguest was unable to reach the front . two furlongs out he was challenged by mtoto , ridden by michael roberts . the two horses raced together in the closing stages before mtoto pulled ahead to prevail by three quarters a length , with triptych taking third . [ 10 ] three weeks later , reference point returned to twelve furlongs in the king george vi and queen elizabeth diamond stakes at ascot . starting the 11 / 10 favourite , he led the field into the straight and then pulled clear in the final quarter mile to win by three lengths from celestial storm and triptych . [ 11 ]
reference point was given a timeform rating of 139 , the eleventh highest awarded to any horse up to that time , and higher than those of nijinsky , alleged and troy . [ 16 ] in their book a century of champions , john randall and tony morris rated reference point the thirty - sixth best british horse of the 20th century and the second best derby winner of the 1980s behind shergar . [ 5 ]
the bbc sport correspondent lee mckenzie rated him as one of his
six of the best
recent derby winners ' [ 17 ] and explained that his
workmanlike
racing style sometimes led to his being overlooked . steve cauthen ranked reference point as a
great champion
and one of the best horses he rode in his career . [ 18 ]
reference point was voted 1987 british horse of the year by the racecourse association , attracting twelve of the twenty votes . [ 16 ]
reference point made little impact in four seasons at stud , with his only group one winner being ivyanna , who won the 1992 oaks d ' italia . [ 19 ] he died after fracturing a leg in an accident in december 1991 at the dalham hall stud [ 20 ] where he was buried . [ 21 ]

voltigeur ( 1847–1874 ) was a british thoroughbred racehorse and sire . in a career that lasted from 1849 to august 1852 he ran ten times and won five races . in 1850 he won the epsom derby and the st leger against his fellow three - year - olds and then recorded his most famous victory when beating the flying dutchman in the doncaster cup . in may 1851 voltigeur was beaten by the flying dutchman in what was probably the most celebrated match race in the history of british thoroughbred racing . voltigeur was never as good again , winning once from his remaining five races , but went on to have a successful stud career .
voltigeur , described in sources as being bay , brown or even black , was bred by robert stephenson at his stud at hart , near hartlepool , county durham . he stood 15 . 3 hands ( 63 inches , 160 cm ) high and was described as being
muscular
and
powerful
but having a rather coarse head and being rather
high on the leg
. as a yearling he was sent to the sales , but was returned to his breeder after failing to attract any interest . robert hill , the private trainer for lord zetland was however , impressed by the colt and eventually persuaded the earl to buy him the following autumn for £1 , 000 . the sale arrangement provided for an extra £500 to be paid if the colt won the derby . hill took charge of training the colt at aske , north yorkshire .
voltigeur ' s sire , voltaire was a successful racehorse who won the doncaster cup in 1829 . he went on to become a good stallion , with his best son apart from voltigeur being the st leger winner charles the twelfth . his dam martha lynn went on to produce the yorkshire oaks winner vivandiere and was the grandam of the 1000 guineas winner imperieuse .
voltigeur ran once as a two - year - old , appearing in the wright stakes at richmond , north yorkshire on 31 october 1849 . he looked impressive in the paddock and won well , beating mark tapley by a length .
although voltigeur did not run in the spring of 1850 he was quietly fancied for the epsom derby with his support being particularly strong in yorkshire where zetland owned large estates and among the order of freemasons of which he was a grand master . shortly before the race , zetland discovered that the colt’s breeder had not made the correct entry payments and that it would cost £400 to run in the derby . zetland was determined to withdraw voltigeur , but was persuaded to pay the entry fee after representations from his yorkshire tenants , who explained that they had wagered heavily on the horse and faced ruin if he failed .
voltigeur performed poorly in an exercise gallop shortly after arriving at epsom , and was allowed to start at odds of 16 / 1 in a field of twenty - four runners . the start of the race was delayed after an objection was lodged against one of the runners , diecoon . in an echo of the
running rein
affair of five years ' earlier , the horse was only cleared to run after a veterinary surgeon examined him and confirmed that he was a three - year - old . ridden by job marson , voltigeur was settled in seventh place in the early stages before making his challenge in the straight . inside the final furlong ( 0 . 20 km ) , voltigeur took the lead ahead of the favourite clincher and ran on strongly to win comfortably by a length . the 2000 guineas winner pitsford finished well to take second from clincher in the last strides .
despite his exertions , he turned out two days later for the doncaster cup in which he was the only horse to oppose the flying dutchman , the winner of the 1849 derby and st leger and undefeated in thirteen career starts . the flying dutchman , whose jockey appeared to be the worse for drink , set off at an exceptionally fast pace and marson was able to bide his time on voltigeur . in the straight voltigeur moved up alongside the four - year - old champion and then pulled ahead to win by half a length in a huge upset .
the race inspired a poem from
the druid
( w . h . dixon ) , which was printed in bell ' s life and culminated with the stanza :
the ring stands pale . forth speeds the tale , which many a doubt inspires from east to west , from north to south , it glances o ' er the wires . from richmond unto middleham this message quickly passed your conqueror of conquerors has bowed his head at last .
after the race it was agreed that the two horses would meet again in a match race at york the following spring for a prize of 2 , 000 guineas , with each owner putting up half the sum .
the two - mile race ( 3 . 2 km ) was held as part of a renewed spring meeting at york on 13 may 1851 . the weights for the match were set by henry john rous , who decided that the flying dutchman should carry
pounds ( 54 . 7 kg ) to voltigeur ' s 112 lb ( 51 kg ) . the race between the two yorkshire - trained horses generated enormous public interest among all classes of society , even among those who normally took no interest in horse racing . the match drew an estimated 100 , 000 spectators , the largest crowd to the knavesmire since the execution of eugene aram in 1759 . according to a lengthy analysis of the race published in
, previous great matches , such as the one at newmarket between hambletonian and diamond in 1799 ,
fell into insignificance
in comparison with the york event . even the horses ' exercise gallops attracted large crowds of fans attempting to assess their relative condition . on the day of the race , the crowd was divided into partisan camps , cheering for either
volti
or
the flyer
. ridden by nat flatman , voltigeur made the running , but although he held the lead into the straight , he was unable to dispose of his rival . in the final furlong , the flatman dropped his whip , and the flying dutchman moved up level and then pulled ahead to win by a length .
the painting of the finish of the match by john f . herring ( right ) became one of the most widely reproduced images of the time with
scarcely a village
in the british empire being without at least one copy .
one day after his defeat , voltigeur turned out for the york and ainsty hunt cup over two miles ( 3 . 2 km ) , in which he was surprisingly beaten by a three - year - old filly named nancy .
in may 1886 the sporting times carried out a poll of one hundred experts to create a ranking of the best british racehorses of the 19th century . voltigeur was ranked thirtieth , having been placed in the top ten by eight of the contributors . he was the sixth - highest placed horse to have raced before 1850 .
on voltigeur ' s death in 1874 the sheffield telegraph called him
the pride of the yorkshire sportsman , and one of the best and most popular horses that ever trod the british turf .
when the racecourse authorities at york instituted a new trial race for the st leger in 1950 , the race was named the
great voltigeur stakes
in his honour .
voltigeur was the only racehorse painted by the famous animal painter edwin henry landseer . landseer ' s interest was reportedly engaged when he heard that voltigeur was constantly accompanied by a tortoiseshell cat who slept on the horse ' s back .
at the age of twenty - seven voltigeur sustained a fractured hind leg when he was kicked by a mare named time test . he was shot on february 21 , 1874 , and buried in the grounds of aske hall . his cannon bone however , was preserved and is still displayed in a glass cabinet at york racecourse .
rock sand ( gb ) br c 1900 by sainfoin - roquebrune , by st . simon family 4 - n
springfield joseph h houldsworth , was a great sportsman and member of the jockey club . early on he acquired horses from james merry , and numbered among his racing string such horses as norfolk and great yorkshire stakes winner coltness , prince of wales ' s stakes winner glengarry , sussex stakes winner orvieto and champion and jockey club stakes winner laveno .
springfield b c 1873 ( st . albans - viridis , by marsyas ) . family 12 - c . bred by hm queen victoria ( 1819 - 1901 ) , springfield was a full brother to wokingham ( b c 1877 ) , aptly named since he won the wokingham stakes at ascot in 1881 and 1882 . their grandam , maid of palmyra ( b f 1855 ) , also produced ebor handicap winner verdant ( ch c 1862 marsyas ) and another wokingham winner chesnut ( ch c 1869 marsyas ) . she was ancestress to belmont stakes winner kingfisher ( b c 1867 lexington ) and july cup , queen anne stakes and king ' s stand stakes winner best man ( b c 1890 ormonde or melton ) . he was purchased at the annual hampton court yearling sale by inverate scotsman j h houldsworth for 320 guineas . shortly after his purchase he fractured his pelvis , but he was recovered enough to run the following year . springfield was later described as a
bay with a narrow blaze on his face , and his off hind heel is white . he stands over 16 hands , with great bone , substance and length , and grand symmetry throughout . for bloodlike style , fashion and movement he has no superior , and he has gained his honours fairly on his merits
. he was considered one of the fastest horses ever seen .
sainfoin , photograph by clarence hailey hm queen victoria ( 1819 - 1901 ) , re - established the breeding of blood horses at hampton court at the end of 1849 . an annual sale of the queen ' s yearlings occurred after the ascot race meeting . a number of good stallions stood there and many high quality horses were produced .
rock sand , photograph by august belmont sir james percy miller ( 1864 - 1906 ) , 2d bt , was considered one of the luckiest people on the turf . having purchased sainfoin just over a month before he won the derby , he then bred another derby winner in rock sand .
rock sand br c 1900 ( sainfoin - roquebrune , by st . simon ) . family 4 - n . the tenth winner of the triple crown in england , rock sand was described as a beautifully made little colt with much quality and courage . sir james purchased his sire sainfoin ( ch c 1887 ) the same year he won the derby . he purchased his dam , roquebrune ( br f 1893 ) , as a yearling for 4 , 100 guineas from the disposal sale for the dowager duchess of montrose .

voltigeur was a bay colt born in hartlepool , great britain in 1847 , by voltaire out of martha lynn by mulatto . bred by robert stephenson , he was sent to the sales as a yearling but was unwanted and was sent back home . the following spring , with the urging of his brother - in - law , lord zetland purchased the colt for 1 , 000 guineas . second time lucky in fact as he had been advised to purchase the colt at the yearling sales but had declined .
he was described by henry hall , an equine artist as a “brown horse standing only 15 hands 3 inches in height , and with a rather coarse head , small ears , and muscular neck with very good oblique shoulder , deep - girthed , high in the leg , and rather light , but with a good back and powerful quarters rather drooping toward his light , thin tail . ”
the flying dutchman was born in great britain in 1846 , a colt by bay middleton out of barbelle by sandbeck . barbelle had produced the fine horse van tromp who won many stakes races including the st leger for his owner lord eglinton . lord eglinton approached van tromp’s breeder and agreed to pay 1 , 000 guineas for each perfectly formed foal produced from the womb of barbelle . so he came to own the flying dutchman .

another local official , erik tapia , suggested that the deaths of the popoche chub fish might be due to overpopulation .
but a local official , ismael del toro , said the deaths of the popoche chub fish happened every year during the rainy season .
local media reported at least 40 tonnes of popoche chub freshwater fish had washed up on the shores of lake cajititlan , in jalisco state .
nearly 50 tonnes of dead popoche chub fish were removed at the weekend from lake cajititlán , a lagoon in the central state of jalisco .

fishermen , firefighters , town hall workers and staff from the state agricultural ministry pulled hundreds of thousands of dead popoche chub fish from the lake and buried them in a pit .
the incident comes after of a series of smaller waves of dead popoche chub in the lake in recent months , including one last week , ensuring that 2014 is already by far the worst year for the species , which has been under attack for the past few years .

algansea popoche
in fishbase . april 2006 version .
victor hugo ornelas , a reporter from the tlajomulco - based newspaper la verdad , said it also appeared that fertilisers washed into the lake from surrounding cornfields during the rainy season could be a significant factor . the fertilisers appear to fuel the growth of algae near the surface , where the popoche chub swim .
fishermen have been removing thousands of dead fish from a lake near the western mexican city of guadalajara .
one local official described their deaths as a
natural , cyclical phenomenon
that occurred every year .
however , other state and local officials have blamed poor lake management for the deaths of the fish .
the authorities are investigating whether a wastewater treatment plant is to blame for failing to filter out untreated material and thus reducing the amount of oxygen in the water .
last year local fishermen recovered about 200 tonnes of dead fish from lake cajititlan . more than 100 fishermen are involved in this year ' s operation .
it is a natural , cyclical phenomenon . it happens every year and other species are not affected ,

they do not have any natural predator and they are not suitable for human consumption ,

mexicans are baffled at the sudden death of thousands of fish in a lake in the centre of the country , a dramatic intensification of a problem that no one has yet been able to explain .
the authorities in the lakeside town of tlajomulco de zúñiga , about 25 minutes ' drive south of the city of guadalajara , had previously blamed the deaths on
a cyclical phenomenon caused by temperature variations and the reduction of oxygen
.
this weekend , the state ' s environment secretary , magdalena ruiz mejía , ruled out natural causes and blamed
poor management of the body of water
. she pointed to municipal waste water treatment facilities and promised a full investigation .
there have been complaints that a nearby tequila distillery is storing waste in containers that drain into channels that feed into the lake .
it is obvious that there are many sources of pollution around the lake ,
ornelas said .
fertiliser runoff in a particularly heavy rainy season could be the straw that is breaking the camel ' s back .
josé luis castillo , who takes tourists around the lake in his boat , told the newspaper el informador how the fish first attracted attention by swimming even closer to the surface than usual .
after that they died ,
he said .
lots and lots have died this year .
the fish deaths are just the latest in a succession of incidents in which large numbers of creatures have been found dead in particular places , from sea lions in california to seabirds in peru .

without warning , hundreds of thousands of dead fish have been floating to the surface of lake cajititlan in the mexican state of jalisco over the past week . local authorities claim the deaths are part of a “natural cycle , ” but state authorities disagree , saying that the phenomena is due to “poor management” of the lake . this isn’t the first time this has happened either – 10 tons of fish were found dead in the same lake last october . is this really an annual event , or yet another occurrence caused by the harmful activities of humans ?
state authorities are confident that improper management of sludge produced by local wastewater treatment plants is to blame . the only problem is that they have so far been denied access to the plants , and therefore been unable to gather any concrete evidence .
the argument in favor of natural causes is that between the months of august , september and october , a lack of oxygen in the water , caused by the drag of organic matter during the rainy season causes many of the freshwater fish in the lake to die . while this seems logical , the fact that the number has increased so dramatically since last year ( 10 tons to 50 , and counting ) points to other variables . until there is more evidence , all state authorities have been able to do is issue an environmental alert for the lake .

the black flying squirrel or large black flying squirrel ( aeromys tephromelas ) is a species of rodent in the family sciuridae .

it is found in brunei , indonesia , and malaysia ; its habitat is primary and secondary forests and gardens where it uses tree hollows .

it feeds on fruits , nuts and other vegetable matter .

it is likely not threatened and is adaptable to habitat loss .

black flying squirrel

according to the international union for the conservation of nature ' s red list , these species are endangered : san joaquin antelope ground squirrel , woolly flying squirrel , sipora flying squirrel , mentawi flying squirrel , siberut flying squirrel , smoky flying squirrel , vincent ' s bush squirrel , baja california rock squirrel , idaho ground squirrel , perote ground squirrel , fraternal squirrel and mearns ' squirrel . the namdapha flying squirrel is critically endangered .
a young / baby of a black flying squirrel is called a ' pup , kit or kitten ' . the females are called ' doe ' and males ' buck ' . a black flying squirrel group is called a ' dray or scurry ' .
the black flying squirrel , large black flying squirrel is listed as least concern ( lr / lc ) , lowest risk . does not qualify for a more at risk category . widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category , on the iucn red list of threatened species
there are more than 200 species of squirrels , according to the integrated taxonomic information system ( itis ) , and they are categorized into three types : tree squirrels , ground squirrels and flying squirrels . these three categories are further broken down into many squirrel types , such as albino , mountain tree , antelope , spotted , grey , american red , douglas , fox , pygmy , northern flying , southern , arizona gray , idaho , arctic ground , albert’s , franklin , richardson , rock , white and black squirrel .
since there are so many types of squirrels , they range greatly in size . the smallest squirrel is the african pygmy squirrel . it grows to 2 . 8 to 5 inches ( 7 to 13 centimeters ) in length and weighs just 0 . 35 ounces ( 10 grams ) . the indian giant squirrel is the world ' s largest known squirrel . it grows to 36 inches ( 1 meter ) long and weighs up to 4 pounds ( 1 . 8 kilograms ) .
the gray squirrel ( sciurus carolinensis ) isn ' t just gray . it comes in a variety of colors , such as white , gray , brown and black . these little squirrels are great at planting trees . they bury their acorns , but forget where they put them . the forgotten acorns become oak trees .
this nocturnal flying squirrel inhabits primary and secondary forests , foothills of the ranges in borneo and malaysia . it is also found in gardens where it uses tree hollows . it is relatively adaptable . this species eats fruits , nuts , and other vegetable matter ( lekagul and mcneely 1988 ) .
flying squirrels make their homes in tree holes or nests that are built into the crooks of branches . to get from tree to tree or from a tree to the ground , flying squirrels spread the muscle membrane between their legs and body and glide on the air . they can glide up to 160 feet ( 48 m ) , making it look like they can fly .
after seven to eight weeks , the young are weaned . when the kits leave the nest , they don ' t travel farther than 2 miles from home , according to the massachusetts department of wildlife and fisheries . some species of squirrel have new litters every few months or as little as twice per year .
these rodents have remarkable little bodies . for example , a squirrel has padded feet that cushions jumps from up to 20 feet ( 6 meters ) long . their eyes are high on their head and placed on each side of the head so they can see a large amount of their surroundings without having to turn their head . they are also fantastic runners . squirrels can run 20 mph ( 32 kph ) .
this species is known from peninsular malaysia , penang island , sumatra and borneo ( medway 1983 ) . the
typical form
of this species occurs in southernmost provinces of thailand . reports from northern thailand in lekagul and macneely ( 1977 ) have not been confirmed , nor have those in tizard et al . ( 1997 ) from northern lao pdr . however , flying squirrels in these areas remain very poorly known so it is unclear whether these dark animals are melanistic petaurista sp . or aeromys tephromelas .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
aplin , k . , lunde , d . p . , tizard , r . j & duckworth , j . w .
justification : listed as data deficient since , although it has been recorded over a very wide area , very little is known about its status and habitat requirements . according to medway ( 1983 ) it is restricted to lowlands and foothills in peninsular malaysia . if this pattern is found in the rest of its range it may merit categorisation as at least near threatened .
there are no major threats to this species , as it is adaptable and is likely to persist unless forest is lost completely .
it likely occurs in protected areas across its range . however , further studies are needed into the distribution , abundance , natural history and threats to this species .
