ROUGEMONT ( CRO).

Remark

This new record shows that this species is not restricted to the mountains of south India as I had supposed but also occurs in this remaining patch of rainforest in the eastern Ghats of Orissa (and ASSING 2013a has recorded it from the western Ghats, Goa!). Another staphylinid taken that day in the same locality, Mitomorphus nilgiricus Bordoni , was also previously thought to be endemic to the mountains of south India (see chapter on biogeography, below).
