摘要
Manis aurita Hodgson 1837 is identified as the earliest available name for the species recently named as Manis indoburmanica by Wangmo et al. (Mamm Biol, 2025. https://doi.org/10.1007/s42991-024-00475-7). Another name previously synonymized with Manis pentadactyla, Phatages bengalensis Fitzinger 1872, is a synonym of Manis crassicaudata.
