冈底斯-念青唐古拉山脉,又称外喜马拉雅山脉(Transhimalaya),是一条长1,600千米、东西向延伸的山脉,分属中国、印度和尼泊尔,与喜马拉雅山脉主脉平行[1][2]。该山脉位于青藏高原南缘,雅鲁藏布江以北,由西边的冈底斯山脉和东边的念青唐古拉山脉组成。
“外喜马拉雅山脉”一名由瑞典地理学家斯文·赫定于20世纪初提出[3]。1952年,《哥伦比亚利平科特地名辞典》(Columbia Lippincott Gazetteer)将“外喜马拉雅山脉”描述为“界定不清的山区”(ill-defined mountain area)、“没有明显的山脊线或中心线,也没有河流分隔”(no marked crest line or central alignment and no division by rivers)。在更新的地图上,西部的冈底斯山脉与东部的念青唐古拉山脉则界线分明[4]。
