Abstract: Tropihypnus chatterjeei (Fleutiaux, 1928) SDI Crypnoidus chatterjeei Fleutiaux, 1928b: 253 (original description; published type locality: Dehra-Dun, India). Tropihypnus chatterjeei (Fleutiaux, 1928b): Fleutiaux, 1932: 254 (synonymised Crypnoidus with Tropihypnus); Stibick, 1968: 185 (India: Uttarakhand); Stibick, 1969: 81 (distribution confirmed; India: Uttarakhand); Cate, 2007: 167 (catalogue; “UP” as India: Uttaranchal, Uttar Pradesh); Schimmel & Tarnawski, 2008: 648 (catalogue; “ India: Darjeeling, Dehra-Dun”); Gupta et al., 2018: 501 (erroneous spelling “Tlcuúeaix” instead of Fleutiaux; catalogue; “2B” as India: Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand). Type Locality. India: Sivalik, Dehradun District, Uttarakhand [North British India: Siwaliks, Dehra-Dun]. Type Depository. Type, SU (??). Distribution in India. Uttarakhand (Almora District, Dehradun District). General Distribution. India. Remark. The type material is likely housed in MNHN, but verification was not possible. Schimmel & Tarnawski (2008: 648) erroneously listed “ India: Darjeeling” in the distribution of this species without reference to any new material. As the presence of this species in Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal requires confirmation, these localities are not included here. The species is considered endemic to India.
