8 years ago Kristof/Greg, the following came in via VertNet for ORN.024630 and related specimens. I’m not sure whether the specimen tag or field logs might provide more information, but you can see the taxonomic comment below and the interest in having a revised lat/lon and precise locality for the materials, if available. Best, Larry

There is a series of four specimens (YPM ORN 24630-33) of Perdicula asiatica which has been collected by NG Pillai from Travancore State. These are attributed to vidali race and it would be beneficial to supply the exact collection location from the specimen tag to determine the range limits of this subspecies. Currently, its plotted way down to southern Kerala (Thiruvananthapuram which was in erstwhile Travancore) - however, this would redefine the range limits of vidali.
