The Mishmi Hills are located at the northeastern tip of India, in northeastern Arunachal Pradesh.[1] On the Chinese side, they form the southern parts of Nyingchi Prefecture in the Tibet Autonomous Region.
These hills occur at the junction of Northeastern Himalaya and Indo-Burma ranges. The Himalayan arc takes a sharp turn and meets Indo-Burma ranges. The rocks of eastern lesser Himalaya and the central crystallines appear to be largely attenuated and truncated in Mishmi Hills.[2]
