Geographic Range [top]
Range Description: This species has only recently been described from its type locality at Gon Nyin Bin Camp, Alaungdaw Kathapa National Park, Monywa District, Sagaing Division, Myanmar. There is some disagreement over the potential distribution of this species. Bauer (2003) expects a range extension eastward through the dry zone to Shan Plateau, while G. Zug (pers. comm.) believes that as its known occurrence at Alaungdaw Kathapa is on the western edge of the central dry zone, and further collections will instead be likely along the eastern face of the Chin Hills.
