description: <i>Kerivoula hardwickii</i> [Hordfield, 1824] <i>Vespertilio hardwickii</i> Horsfield, 1824: part 8; Java, INDONESIA (Collector unknown; Type: BM(NH) 79.11.29.181) [102]. <i>Kerivoula hardwickii</i> [8]. <b>Common English name:</b> Hardwicke’s Woolly Bat <b>Barcode Index Number:</b> BOLD: AAA 6722 (5 DNA barcodes from Peninsular Malaysia; Fig 6) <b>Remarks:</b> DNA barcodes recorded as <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> are associated with four BINs, BOLD: AAA6722, BOLD:AAA6725, BOLD:AAC5514 and BOLD:AAC5515. DNA barcodes from Peninsular Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Laos formed a mainland group, whereas DNA barcodes from Malaysian Borneo and Kalimantan, Indonesia formed a Bornean group (Fig 6). Francis et al. [2] suggested that <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> is a species complex based on the analysis of COI mtDNA. However, Khan et al. [169] recognised only a single form across Malaysia (Peninsular and Borneo) and suggested that the Bornean form is a result of chromosomal polymorphism. Douangboubpha et al. [170] reported that specimens from Thailand referred as <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> can be divided into two morphotypes: “flat” skulls and “domed” skulls. Although the specimens with “flat” skulls did not show variation in size and morphology, they were closely clustered into two clades (<i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> Aand <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> B) 2.14% divergent in COI mtDNA; whereas specimens with “domed” skulls showed variation in size and morphology but were closely clustered together in a COI analysis (<i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> C). “Domed” skulls were 16.37% and 20.02% divergent to <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> Aand <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> Bin COI mtDNA respectively [170]. There are no subspecies recognised currently [98] contradicting older literature. Ellerman and Morrison-Scott [138] recognised four subspecies: <i>hardwickii</i> (type locality: Java), <i>depressa</i> (type locality: southern Burma = Myanmar), <i>crypta</i> (type locality: southern India), and <i>malpasi</i> (type locality: Sri Lanka) whereas Hill [171] recognised five, including <i>engana</i> (type locality: southwest of Sumatra). The names <i>hardwickii</i> and <i>depressa</i> were suggested for the specimens from Thailand with “domed” and “flat” skulls respectively, but further research is required to assign Linnaean names conclusively [170]. Whether the four BINs in our NJ tree (Fig 6) represent the four subspecies remains to be determined. We tentatively retained the name <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> in this checklist pending further research. <b>IUCN status:</b> Least Concern <b>Recorded at: Kelantan</b>: Ulu Kelantan [23], Gunung Stong State Park [100], Air Panas-Gua Musang, [61], Gua Musang [62]; <b>Perak</b>: Temengor Forest Reserve [46, 47, 111], Royal Belum State Park [66], Kledang Saiong Forest Reserve [100, 101]; <b>Perlis</b>: Wang Kelian State Park [50]; <b>Johor</b>: Endau-Kluang Forest Reserve [56], Gunung Panti and Labis Forest Reserve [100]; <b>Melaka</b>: Sungai Udang Forest Reserve [68]; <b>Pahang</b>: Bukit Ibam, Klau Besar, and Gunung Aais [100]; <b>Pulau Pinang</b>: Bukit Panchor [100]; <b>Negeri Sembilan</b>: Gunung Angsi Forest Reserve [100, 101], Berembun Forest Reserve [101]; <b>Selangor</b>: Semangkok Forest Reserve and Ulu Gombak [101]; <b>Terengganu</b>: Gunung Tebu Forest Reserve [101]. <i>K</i>. <i>hardwickii</i> has been reported roosting in tree hollows, among clumps of dead leaves, and in dead and broken bamboo stems [14, 23].
