Prosoplus kinabaluensis is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Stephan von Breuning in 1966. It is known from Borneo. [1]
Hypsicalotes is a genus of the family Agamidae having a single species Hypsicalotes kinabaluensis found in Malaysia.
Nepenthes villosa, or the villose pitcher-plant, is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Mount Kinabalu and neighbouring Mount Tambuyukon in northeastern Borneo. It grows at higher elevations than any other Bornean Nepenthes species, occurring at elevations of over 3,200 m (10,500 ft). Nepenthes villosa is characterised by its highly developed and intricate peristome, which distinguishes it from the closely related N. edwardsiana and N. macrophylla.
Nepenthes × kinabaluensis, or the Kinabalu pitcher-plant, is the natural hybrid between N. rajah and N. villosa. It was first collected near Kambarangoh on Mount Kinabalu, Borneo by Lilian Gibbs in 1910 and later mentioned by John Muirhead Macfarlane as "Nepenthes sp." in 1914. Although Macfarlane did not formally name the plant, he noted that "[a]ll available morphological details suggest that this is a hybrid between N. villosa and N. rajah". It was finally described in 1976 by Shigeo Kurata as N. × kinabaluensis. The name was first published in Nepenthes of Mount Kinabalu, but was a nomen nudum at the time as it lacked an adequate description and information on the type specimen. The name was subsequently published validly by Kurata in 1984.
The Rafflesia Forest Reserve is a Virgin Jungle Reserve (VJR) that covers an area of 356 hectares in Tambunan District of Sabah, Malaysia. The reserve was first established in 1967 as part of the Crocker Range Forest Reserve. In 1984, it was made a separate reserve by the Sabah Forestry Department to protect the area's Rafflesia flowers.
Agathis kinabaluensis is a tree of Borneo in the conifer family Araucariaceae. The specific epithet kinabaluensis is from the Latin, referring to the species being native to Mount Kinabalu in Sabah.
The mountain serpent eagle, also known as the Kinabalu serpent eagle, is a bird of prey that is found in northern Borneo. It is found at altitudes of 1,000–4,100 metres (3,300–13,500 ft) in forest, especially where it becomes stunted. Where their range overlaps, the crested serpent eagle generally occurs at lower altitudes. The mountain serpent eagle is darker than the Bornean subspecies of the crested serpent eagle.
The Bornean leafbird, also known as the Kinabalu leafbird, is a species of bird in the family Chloropseidae. It is found in humid forest in Borneo, to which it is endemic. It has traditionally been considered a subspecies of the blue-winged leafbird, but differ in measurements and morphology, the female Bornean leafbird having a distinctive male-like plumage. The distribution of the two are known to approach each other, but there is no evidence of intergradation.
Ooia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae, formally described in 2010. It has two known species, both endemic to the island of Borneo.
Prosoplus is a genus of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae, containing the following species:

Prosoplus rugulosus is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Stephan von Breuning in 1938.
Prosoplus paganoides is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Stephan von Breuning in 1940. It is known from Papua New Guinea and Moluccas.
Prosoplus imitans is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Stephan von Breuning in 1961.
Rhytiphora bankii is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1775, under the genus Lamia. It is known from Australia, the Philippines, Borneo, Java, Micronesia, New Guinea, Hawaii, Moluccas, Sumatra, Vietnam, and has been introduced into Japan. The Australian species of Prosoplus were synonymised with Rhytiphora in 2013.
Prosoplus costatus is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Karl-Ernst Hüdepohl in 1996. It is known from Borneo and Malaysia.
Prosoplus dentatus is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Guillaume-Antoine Olivier in 1792. It is known from Mauritius, Seychelles, Réunion, and Madagascar. It contains the varietas Prosoplus dentatus var. ochreomaculatus.
Prosoplus kambangensis is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Stephan von Breuning and de Jong in 1941.
Prosoplus lividus is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Masaki Matsushita in 1935.
Prosoplus sinuatofasciatus is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Blanchard in 1855.
Tenompok Forest Reserve is a protected forest reserve in Ranau District of West Coast Division, Sabah, Malaysia. It was designated as a Class 1 Forest Reserve by the Sabah Forestry Department in 1984. Its area is 1,984 hectares (19.84 km2). A former reserve, the Kampung Bundu Tuhan Native Residence Reserve, occupied what is now the eastern portion of Tenompok. The reserve is mountainous, reaching 1,660 metres (5,450 ft) above sea level. Vegetation consists of lower montane forest and montane kerangas forest. Both share a similar species composition, although trees in montane keranga forests are smaller. The reserve's Tomis River is a tributary of the Tuaran River. The area of the reserve has never received significant logging, aside from small amount near what are now its borders. This small logging is thought to be carried out by nearby villages for local use. There is also some agricultural encroachment. The reserve lies between Kinabalu Park and Crocker Range National Park. One farmer has a house within the reserve. There are several settlements around the reserve, along with agricultural land.
