Comments.
Bolitogyrus himalayicus is here newly reported from Nepal. The above specimen is substantially larger than the holotype and was collected at a higher elevation (200 m versus 1000 m), but its aedeagal morphology corresponds perfectly. This specimen also represents the only record of the genus from Nepal and was previously reported by Smetana (1988) under the name B. vulneratus . The couplets from the key in Brunke (2017) should be modified as follows:
| 30 | Paramere with subbasal expansion in lateral view; Garo Hills, Meghalaya, India | B. concavus Brunke |
| - | Paramere without subbasal expansion in lateral view; Khasi Hills, Meghalaya, and Himalaya of Nepal and West Bengal, India | 31 |
| 31 | Apex of the median lobe in parameral view with single toothed carina; paramere with peg setae arranged in disorganized marginal row, apex with dense group; Himalaya of Nepal and West Bengal, India | B. himalayicus Brunke |
| - | Apex of median lobe in parameral view with double-toothed carina; paramere with peg setae in sparse, single marginal row; Khasi Hills, Meghalaya, India | B. nanus Brunke |
