Description
Summary:Walchia (Walchia) disparunguis (Oudemans, 1929) Schoengastiella disparunguis Oudemans, 1929: 398; Thor & Willmann 1947: 335. Walchia disparunguis: Fuller 1952: 207, figs. 7b, c, 8; Gunther 1952: 44; Wharton & Fuller 1952: 92; Radford 1954: 270; Chaisiri et al. 2016: 335. Gahrliepia (Walchia) disparunguis: Womersley 1952: 290, pl. 76 (M–P); Womersley & Audy 1957: 287; Schluger et al. 1960c: 466, figs. 24–30; Goff 1979: 333; Chau et al. 2007: 170, fig. 84. Gahrliepia (Walchia) disparunguis disparunguis: Traub & Evans 1957: 327, figs. 103–111; Audy 1957: 278; Lakshana 1973: 24. Walchia (Walchia) disparunguis: Vercammen-Grandjean 1968b: 111; 1971: 2, pl. A. Gahrliepia (Walchia) disparangus (sic): Mohd Zain et al. 2015: tab. 1. Type deposition. RMNH. Type data. Ex Rattus rattus, Indonesia, W Java Is., Garoet. Hosts. RODENTIA: Bandicota bengalensis, Callosciurus notatus, Dremomys everetti, Hydromys chrysogaster, Leopoldamys sabanus, Maxomys alticola, M. rajah, M. whiteheadi, Millardia meltada, Niviventer niviventer, Rattus exulans, R. leucopus, R. nitidus, R. rattus, R. sordidus, R. tanezumi, Sundamys muelleri; SCANDENTIA: Tupaia glis. Distribution. Burma, Ceylon, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Vietnam. Remarks. Vercammen-Grandjean (1971), on the basis of an examination of the type series, came to the conclusion that Schoengastiella disparunguis Oudemans, 1929 is identical to Walchia pingue Gater, 1932, while the materials identified as Gahrliepia (Walchia) disparunguis disparunguis by Traub & Evans (1957) represent a separate species, which was described by him as Walchia (Walchia) fulleri (see below). Thus, some part of the above records can be attributed to W. fulleri.
