Alticola (Alticola) montosa True 1894 View in CoL , Proc. U. S. Natl. Mus ., 17: 11.

Type Locality: N India, C Kashmir, 11,000 ft (3353 m).

Vernacular Names: Kashmir Mountain Vole.

Synonyms: Alticola (Alticola) imitator (Bonhote 1905) .

Distribution: Jammu and Kashmir, ca. 2450-4000 m ( Agrawal, 2000; Hinton, 1926 a; Rossolimo and Pavlinov, 1992).

Conservation: IUCN – Vulnerable.

Discussion: Subgenus Alticola , A. roylei-A. argentatus species group ( Rossolimo and Pavlinov, 1992). Usually incorporated in A. roylei ( Corbet, 1978 c; Gromov and Polyakov, 1977), but the diagnostic traits of montosa clearly distinguish it from geographically adjacent roylei , as Hinton (1926 a) long ago noted and Rossolimo and Pavlinov (1992) verified.
