| No descriptions in SINAV 2:11. Strangely, SINAV 2:11 states that this record is the "first sighting since March 1987". However, the supposed March 1987 record is not listed in Lim (2009) (who compiled SINAV 2:11). SINAV 1:3, which dealt with records from March 1987, does not include this supposed record either. |
| Verdict | Accepted / Wild (Unverifiable) |
