The specific term sondaicus of Desmarest (Mamm. P.399, 1820) appears to be the earliest for this species. In 1824 javanicus was published by Geoffroy St.Hilaire and Frederick Cuvier in the Hist.Nat. des Mamm. Pl. 309, and was subsequently adopted by Cuvier in his Regne Animal, by Schreber, and by other authors.
