Locations of all specimens used in the study for morphological and phylogenetic analysis. The position of two significant mountain ranges of the Lesser Himalayas, Pir Panjal and Dhauladhar, are indicated by dashed lines. An inset showing the current known distribution of Gloydius himalayanus (Günther, 1864) is also shown, with limits determined by the known altitudinal range (900–5000 m). The maps were constructed using Digital Elevation Models on QGIS ver. 3.22.1.

Examples of bites from Gloydius chambensis sp. nov. a. Female victim bitten on the little toe of her left foot, while walking through long grass to collect drinking water, with visible swelling. b–c. Elderly woman, bitten on the ring finger of her right hand while cutting long grass for cattle fodder, with swelling, localized pain, and tenderness immediately after the bite. After 24 hours, there were signs of infection at the bite site with reduced swelling. The substances on the leg of the first victim and the white substance on the hand of the second victim were applied by a local faith healer.	Fig. 10.
