Remarks. Phyllodrepa (s.str.) himalayica Cameron, 1924 was described based on an unspecified number of syntypes from “Chakrata District, 6500 to 8000 feet; Simla Hills, 9000 feet above the sea” from the North India (Uttarakhand). Later, it was redescribed by the same author (Cameron 1930). The species is only known from the type locality (Fig. 22); the records of the species from Himachal Pradesh and Uttaranchal (Uttar Pradesh) of India by Sch̹lke & Smetana (2015) are incorrect.
