TYPE LOCALITY: India, "Cashmere.”

COMMENT: Includes argentatus and barakschin; see Heptner and Rossolimo, 1968, Sbor. Tr. Zool. Mus. Moscow State Univ., 10:53-93; but argentatus may be a distinct species and barakschin may be a subspecies of stoliczkanus; see Gromov and Polyakov, 1977, [Voles (Microtinae), Fauna U.S. S.R.], Nauka, Moscow and Leningrad, 3(8):129. Sokolov and Orlov, 1980:133, and Gromov and Baranova, 1981: 176, both treated argentatus, as a distinct species and the latter excluded barakschin from roylei.
