This species is found in riparian habitat and arid flood plains with rich undergrowth in the Himalaya. It roosts among rocky cliffs, crevices among rocks and overhanging vegetation (Molur et al. 2002).	This species is threatened by deforestation, generally resulting from logging operations and the conversion of land for agricultural use, mining and quarrying activities. It is also threatened due to hunting for medicinal purposes (Molur et al. 2002).	The abundance, population size and trends for this species are not known (Molur et al. 2002).	Decreasing	This species is endemic to South Asia, where it is presently known from Afghanistan (Nangarhar and Paktika provinces), India (Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand), Nepal (Midwestern Nepal) (Srinivasulu and Srinivasulu 2012, Benda and Gaisler 2015). The specimens reported from Pakistan by Roberts (1977) are of N. leisleri. No records of N. montanus is available from Pakistan (Benda and Gaisler 2015). It has been recorded at an altitudinal range of 680 to 1,692 m asl.		Terrestrial	There are no direct conservation measures in place for this species. The species has not been recorded from any protected areas. Detailed surveys, ecological studies, population and habitat monitoring, protection against poaching are the main recommendations (Molur et al . 2002).	Indomalayan		FALSE	FALSE	Global	Simmons, N.
