description: <i>Kerivoula minuta</i> Miller, 1898 <i>Kerivoula minuta</i> Miller, 1898: 321; Lay Song Hong, Trang, south THAILAND (Dr. W. L. Abbott, collector; USNM 83547) [174]. <b>Common English name:</b> Least Woolly Bat <b>Barcode Index Number:</b> BOLD: AAC 1298 (9 DNA barcodes from Peninsular Malaysia; Fig 6) <b>Remarks:</b> DNA barcodes recorded as <i>K</i>. <i>minuta</i> are associated with six BINs, BOLD: AAC1296, BOLD:AAC1297, BOLD:AAC1298, BOLD:AAC1299, BOLD:ACF4510, and BOLD:ACF451 (Fig 6). Khan [175] reported 4.44% of divergence in cytochrome <i>b</i> mtDNA between <i>K</i>. <i>minuta</i> from Peninsular Malaysia and Malaysian Borneo (Sabah and Sarawak) with no shared haplotypes. Our NJ analysis also showed a divergence between <i>K</i>. <i>minuta</i> from Peninsular Malaysia and Borneo (Fig 6). The taxon occurring in Peninsular Malaysia represents <i>K</i>. <i>minuta</i> based on the type locality. <b>IUCN status:</b> Near Threatened <b>Recorded at: Johor</b>: Endau Rompin National Park (BM422-04 and ABRSS347-06 [4]), Gunung Panti and Labis Forest Reserve [100]; <b>Selangor</b>: Ulu Gombak and Hulu Langat [32]; <b>Pahang</b>: Krau Wildlife Reserve and Lakum [32], Kuala Atok, National Park [32, 44], Bukit Ibam, Kenong and Gunung Aais [100]; <b>Perak</b>: Maxwell Hill [32], Temengor Forest Reserve [46, 47], Royal Belum State Park [66]; <b>Kedah</b>: Bukit Hijau and Ulu Muda Forest Reserve [32, 57, 100]; <b>Kelantan</b>: Gua Musang [61, 62]; <b>Negeri Sembilan</b>: Gunung Angsi Forest Reserve [100]. <i>K</i>. <i>minuta</i> has been recorded in the understory of lowland forests and disturbed areas [14]. <b> <i>Kerivoulapapillosa</i> and <i>K</i>. <i>lenis</i>.</b> <i>K</i>. <i>lenis</i> iscloselyassociatedwith <i>K</i>. <i>papillosa</i> [9] butthe former has a smaller skull and smaller teeth, shorter muzzle and narrower palate [169, 176]. The two species are 10.85% divergent in cytochrome <i>b</i> mtDNA and possess unique karyotypic characters: <i>K</i>. <i>papillosa</i> has a diploid number of chromosomes = 38 and fundamental number = 54 whereas <i>K</i>. <i>lenis</i> has a diploid number of chromosomes = 38 and fundamental number = 52 [32, 175]. Analyses of COI mtDNA by Francis et al. [4] suggested that there are at least four distinct clusters among specimens recorded as <i>K</i>. <i>papillosa</i> and <i>K</i>. <i>lenis</i>. Douangboubpha et al. [170] reported that specimens from Thailand referred as <i>K</i>. <i>papillosa</i> represent five morphological forms but only three distinct clusters based on COI mtDNA analyses.
