Mount Dulit caecilian range

Ichthyophis dulitensis is a species of caecilian in the family Ichthyophiidae. It is endemic to Borneo and only known from near its type locality, Mount Dulit in northern Sarawak, Malaysia,[1][3] after which it is named. Described by Edward Harrison Taylor in 1960, the holotype was collected by Charles Hose already in 1891.[2] It is a poorly known species with uncertain taxonomic status.[1] Common name Mount Dulit caecilian has been coined for it.[1][3]
