Anomalohimalaya cricetuli Teng & Huang, 1981 . Palearctic: 1) China (north), 2) Kyrgyzstan , 3) Tajikistan ( Filippova 1997 , Kolonin 2009 , Fedorova 2017 , Zhang, Y.K. et al. 2019). Chen et al. (2010) excluded China from the geographic distribution of Anomalohimalaya cricetuli , probably following Deng et al. (1999) , who treated this name as a synonym of Anomalohimalaya lotozkyi . This synonymy was not accepted in Guglielmone & Nava (2014) and Guglielmone et al. (2010 b , 2014) because no type comparisons were advanced to support the proposal.
