Taxonomy
Herpestes semitorquatus was the scientific name proposed by John Edward Gray in 1846 for a dark brown mongoose specimen collected in Borneo.[2] Mungos semitorquatus uniformis proposed by Herbert C. Robinson and Cecil Boden Kloss in 1919 were two collared mongooses collected in Ophir District, West Sumatra.[3] All Asian mongooses are now thought to belong in the genus Urva.[4]
Bornean and Sumatran collared mongooses exhibit little genetic divergence.[5]
