Popis:	SummaryThe Crested Argus Rheinardia ocellata nigrescens is endemic to Peninsular Malaysia and is threatened with extinction. It is known from elevations above 600 m and is limited to a few mountain ranges in Peninsular Malaysia. First described in 1902, this subspecies was only known from Gunung Tahan and Gunung Rabung for many years. Recent surveys have added several new sites: Gunung Mandi Angin and Gunung Gagau, Gunung Penumpu and Camp Kor. All known sites are in Taman Negara National Park.
