Although several checklists exist of herpetofauna in Bhutan, these are based on citizen science data or report the diversity of individual regions and published records are lacking for many areas. Like the country as a whole, there is no formal checklist or report for Sarpang District despite the fact that most of this district is encompassed within three protected areas namely Royal Manas National Park, Jigme Singye Wangchuck National Park, and Phibsoo Wildlife Sanctuary.
