Remarks:
A record from West Bengal (Pal, Dey & Roy 2012) is tentatively regarded as a misidentified blanfordanus, since it is far from the nearest known other
localities of dorsalis, but within the range of blanfordanus.
There is also a single record from Madhya Pradesh (Chandra & Gajbe 2005) without locality, which needs confirmation.
