Scientific Name Author Martin, 1909 Country Distribution Myanmar
Citation Description Geographic Range [top] Range Description: This species is known from India (Mitra 2002), Nepal (Vick 1989) and Myanmar (Fraser 1936), and possibly Tibet (Martin 1909), although this record appears suspect and the location is probably an error (e.g. see Fraser 1936). Bangladesh has also been included in the range of this species (e.g. Mitra 2002) but the source of this record is not known, and it is considered to be suspect. The species should be looked for in Bhutan. Only the record from Nepal is recent. Countries occurrence: Native: India (Assam, Meghalaya, West Bengal); Myanmar; Nepal Continuing decline in area of occupancy (AOO): Unknown Extreme fluctuations in area of occupancy (AOO): Unknown Estimated extent of occurrence (EOO) - km2: Continuing decline in extent of occurrence (EOO): Unknown Extreme fluctuations in extent of occurrence (EOO): Unknown Continuing decline in number of locations: Unknown Extreme fluctuations in the number of locations: Unknown Lower elevation limit (metres): 200 Upper elevation limit (metres): 1000 Range Map: Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. Population [top] Population: Few individuals of this species have been collected and nearly all records are more than 70 years old, the exception being that from Nepal which dates from the 1980s. This may indicate genuine scarcity, but may just as well reflect a lack of expert sampling across the species range since the 1930s, and difficulty of capture. Current Population Trend: Unknown Additional data: ?Population severely fragmented: No Habitat and Ecology [top] Habitat and Ecology: No information available.
