Ochotona (Conothoa) himalayana Feng 1973 View in CoL
Ochotona (Conothoa) himalayana Feng 1973 View in CoL , Acta Zool. Sinica, 19: 69.
Type Locality: "Qu-xiang, Bo-qu Valley, Nei-la-mu [= Nyalam] District, alt. 3500 m." [Xigaze (Shigatse) County, Xizang (Tibet), China].
Vernacular Names: Himalayan Pika.
Distribution: Mt. Jolmolungma (Everest) area, S Xizang, China; probably adjacent Nepal.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Subgenus Conothoa . This taxon was considered a synonym of O. roylei by Corbet (1978 c), Weston (1982) and Formozov (1997). Additional data ( Feng and Zheng, 1985; Feng et al., 1986) suggested that it might be an independent species, but its range was within that of the similar O. roylei nepalensis . Additional studies (Yu et al., 2000) have now confirmed its specific distinctness.
