Hist., ser. 9, 11:662 . TYPE LOCALITY: "N.W. flank [Li-kiang Range, 27°N , 100°30'E ] 13,000’" ( Yunnan , China ] . DISTRIBUTION: NW Yunnan , SE Tibet ( China ); N Burma ; Assam , Sikkim ( India ); Bhutan . STATUS: Unknown. SYNONYMS: Monotypic. COMMENTS: Formerly included in pusilla ( Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951 ) , roylei ( Corbet, 1978c ) , and thibetana ( Feng and Kao, 1974 ; Gureev, 1964 ; Weston, 1982 ), but now considered distinct (A. T. Smith et al., 1990, and references therein). O. forresti is poorly known, but may prove to be an allospecies of O. roylei ; it is thought to be geographically sympatric with O. gloveri and/or O. thibetana in Yunnan ( China ), Burma , and Sikkim ( India ).
