Nebria (Epinebriola) rasa ANDREWES, 1936

The erroneous redescription of N. rasa by Shilenkov (1998) on specimens which turned out to be a new species N. (Epinebriola) martensi HUBER & SCHMIDT, 2012 , leads to some confusion in the determination keys in use, and makes it necessary to amend some steps in those keys. We refer to the redescription of N. rasa by Huber & Schmidt (2012) which is based on the analysis of the rasa holotype specimen.

Distribution: Known only from the type locality in Sikkim ( Fig 41 , Nr. 20). Specimens reported from Jaljale Himal in Eastern Nepal by Shilenkov (1998) and by Ledoux & Roux (2005) refer to N. martensi .
