Thanks bayucca for the ID and Chun for the info. You may be right Chun, but I guess there is now way to tell for sure.

There is another species occurring in Borneo, it's the Nisitrus brunnerianus. Maybe one of them is N. brunnerianus ? Little is still known about N. brunnerianus because it is not widespread, only endemic to Borneo
