[Macrostyophora durdeni n. sp. A new plea from Sabah (Borneo) and sympatric species (Siphonaptera: Ceratophyllidae, Pygiopsyllidae)].
We report on fleas collected from small mammals in a lower mountane rainforest in the Crocker Range National Park, Sabah, Borneo. Macrostylophora durdeni n. sp., collected from Dremomys everetti and, of minor importance, Tupaia montana, is described. Further records include Gryphopsylla jacobsoni segragata and Lentistivalius vomerus from T. montana.
