Aproaspidops antecursorum Annandale (Smith 1943) |
Remarks:
Presence in Tibet needs confirmation.
The type locality of Aproaspidops antecursorum lies in Arunachal Pradesh in an area claimed by China.
The alleged occurrence of reticulata in Tibet (e.g., Rao 2000; Zhao & Adler 1993) seems to be based on the sole specimen collected in this locality
(Vogel, Lalremsanga & Vanlalhrima 2017).
Distribution:
Bangladesh,
Bhutan,
India
(Arunachal Pradesh,
Assam,
Manipur,
Meghalaya,
Mizoram,
Nagaland),
Myanmar.
