[...] This species is not uncommon on the plateau of the Nilghiris but occurs more commonly on the slopes of the hills and in the Wynaad. [...] The present species I have seen but seldom on the lower portion of the slopes but it is not uncommon at the foot of the hills and through the Wynaad.

[...] I have never noticed this species on the plateau of the Nilghiris or on the more elevated portion of the slopes but it occurs on the lower portion of the slopes and through the Wynaad.
