Kment 2007.</p> <p>Three of the specimens were collected during the expedition of the Natural History Museum in Basel (NHMB) to eastern Nepal in 2001, and one was collected earlier in the same area by I. Löbl and A. Smetana; the latter specimen is deposited in the Muséum d’histoire naturelle, Genève (MHNG).</p> <p>Scotomedes alienus sikkimensis is now known from north-east India (Sikkim; West Bengal: Darjiling, Kalimpang), Bhutan (VAN DOESBURG 2004), and from central and eastern Nepal (KMENT &amp; ŠRÁMEK 2005, this paper) (Fig. 1).</p> <p>The NHMB material was collected in an open secondary forest at a river bank. The specimens were taken with a sweep net from low herbaceous vegetation. The material discussed here therefore agrees with the current evidence that the Velocipedidae are forest floor dwellers found in forests at high altitudes (COBBEN 1978, VAN DOESBURG 2004).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CB5D14A4642F55FEF87DAC995A3D17	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
