Himalayan wolf
The Himalayan wolf (''Canis lupus chanco'', synonym ''Canis himalayensis'') is basal to all extant ''Canis lupus'' subspecies. It has been suggested by several Indian biologists for recognition as a Critically Endangered canid species. Although the Indian government added the Himalayan wolf to the Endangered Species List in 1998, it still lacks legal protection in Tibet.
==Taxonomy==
The Himalayan wolf is formed by one haplotype〔 that falls within the Tibetan wolf (''Canis lupus chanco'') subspecies of the gray wolf (''Canis lupus''), reflecting the tendency to lump older subspecies and to name fewer new ones. In April 2009, the Latin binom ''Canis himalayensis'' had been proposed for this haplotype as a nomenclatural and taxonomic split from ''Canis lupus'' as a new species through the Nomenclature Specialist on the CITES Animals Committee. The committee recommended against this proposal but suggested that the name be entered into the species database as a synonym of the name under which it was listed.〔 The proposal was based on one study that relied on only a limited number of museum and zoo samples〔 that may not have been representative of the wild population. Further fieldwork was called for.〔
The taxonomic reference Mammal Species of the World (2005) does not recognize ''Canis himalayensis'', however NCBI/Genbank does list ''Canis lupus himalayensis''.
