Abstract

International literature generally excludes Nepal from the range of Indian Chevrotain Moschiola indica (Gray, 1852), despite a number of reports and records, some certainly valid, of the genus over the last 150 years. There are no records in the last few decades, refl ecting major habitat loss in the terai and, perhaps, a lack of specifi c search.
