Geographic Range [top]
Range Description: This species is known only from its type locality described by Bauer (2003) at Panlaung-Pyadalin Cave Wildlife Sanctuary, Ywa Ngan Township, Shan State from an elevation 319 m above sea level. This locality lies along the western edge of the Shan Plateau, hence this species is potentially more widely distributed in this hill region of east-central Myanmar (G. Zug pers. comm. 2008).
