Distribution: Transbaikalia in Russia , Mongolia , and adjacent China (W Xinjiang , N Hebei , and N Nei Mongol ). Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc). Discussion: Included in P. sungorus by some researchers (G. M. Allen, 1940; Corbet, 1978 c ; Ellerman, 1941 ; Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951 ; Gromov and Erbajeva, 1995 ; Wang, 2003 ; Zhang et al., 1997 ), but regarded as distinct by others ( Musser and Carleton, 1993 ; Pavlinov and Rossolimo, 1987 , 1998; Pavlinov et al., 1995 a ). Separation of campbelli is supported by chromosomal differences ( Safronova et al., 1992 ).
