CAS localities . Punjab Prov., Murree, 1,200 m, F, 16 December 1961 ; and 32 km (20 mi) NE Rawalpindi, 850–950 m, F, 16 December 1961. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Prov., 3.2 km (2 mi) N Kohat, 600 m, 4F, 19 December 1961 .

Remarks. In the original description, Attems (1936) reported two individuals and localities, but did not specify the type locality, so both specimens are syntypes. As suggested by Stagl and Stoev (2005), the first locality mentioned, implied to be the type locality by Stoev et al. (2008), is Kohala, on the Jhelum River north of Murree, south of Muzaffarabad, and east of Circle Bakote. I cannot locate the second site, but it is also in the Murree Subdivision though 4,000’ higher and probably near Kohala.

The only male callipodidan from Pakistan is one of the syntypes of A. kohalana , so I combine all prior records under this species. Most samples are from the northeast near Islamabad and Rawalpindi and seem likely to be conspecific.
