Range

Himalayas of south-eastern Tibet, north-western Nepal and tentatively Bhutan; no confirmed Indian records

The Nyingchi high altitude toad, also called the Nyingchi alpine toad or Nyingchi lazy toad, is a toad of the Himalayas found in south-eastern Tibet (China), north-western Nepal and, tentatively, Bhutan. Its type locality is Nyingchi, Tibet (Wikipedia, general species account).

The Wikipedia account states that there are no confirmed records from India, and that earlier Indian records refer to Scutiger occidentalis or Scutiger spinosus, so its place on the Indian list should be checked (Wikipedia, general species account).
