description: <i>Tylonycteris pachypus</i> [Temminck, 1840] <i>Vespertilio pachypus</i> Temminck, 1840: 217; Bantam, west Java, INDONESIA (Collector unknown; Type unknown) [82]. <i>Tylonycteris pachypus</i> [8]. <b>Common English name:</b> Lesser Bamboo Bat <b>Barcode Index Number:</b> DNA barcodes recorded as <i>T</i>. <i>pachypus</i> are associated with two BINs, BOLD: AAC 1209 and BOLD: AAC 1210, but there are no DNA barcodes from Peninsular Malaysia. <b>Remarks:</b> The BIN, BOLD:AAC1210 contains DNA barcodes recorded as <i>T</i>. <i>pachypus</i> and a single DNA barcode recorded as <i>T</i>. <i>robustula</i> (ABBSI217-10) (S9 Fig). We suspect the DNA barcode, ABBSI217-10 is a case of mis-identification as <i>T</i>. <i>pachypus</i> and <i>T</i>. <i>robustula</i> are differ in body size and coloration. Simmons [98] recognised five subspecies: <i>T</i>. <i>p</i>. <i>pachypus</i> (type locality: Java, Indonesia), <i>T</i>. <i>p</i>. <i>aurex</i> (type locality: India), <i>T</i>. <i>p</i>. <i>fulvidus</i> (type locality: Burma = Myanmar), <i>T</i>. <i>p</i>. <i>meyeri</i> (type locality: Philippines), and <i>T</i>. <i>p</i>. <i>bhakti</i> (type locality: Lombok Island, Indonesia). <b>IUCN status:</b> Least Concern <b>Recorded at: Pahang</b>: Krau Wildlife Reserve [11, 41], Tasik Bera Forest Reserve [56]; <b>Perak</b>: Temengor Forest Reserve [46, 47], Royal Belum State Park [66]; <b>Selangor</b>: Bukit Kutu Wildlife Reserve [51], Ulu Gombak [52, 53, 54], Air Hitam Forest Reserve [55]; <b>Kelantan</b>: Air Panas-Gua Musang [61], Gunung Reng and Gua Musang [62], Gunung Stong State Park [67]; <b>Johor</b>: Labis Forest Reserve [100]. <i>T</i>. <i>pachypus</i> roosts in small colonies in live standing bamboo stems, and enters the internodes through slits created by stem-boring beetle larvae [11, 14, 23].
