03F1D33EFFB2FFE0FF53FDB8FC71A09E.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Chimarra gangtokensis sp. nov. is similar to C. talos Malicky 2007, C. nahesson Kimmins 1964, and C. megara Malicky 2007 due to the presence of long, pointed, sclerotized lateral lobes of tergum X in lateral view. Chimarra gangtokensis is most similar to C. megara in the general structure of male genitalia. However, in C. gangtokensis sp. nov. segment IX has its posterolateral margins produced and subtriangular, and the arms of the mesal lobe of tergum X are long and curved dorsad apically, whereas in C. megara segment IX has its posterolateral margins slightly convex and the arms of the mesal lobe of tergum X are directed posterodorsad and are not curved apically. Moreover, there is a distinct difference in the shape and number of endothecal spines.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.

03F1D33EFFB2FFE2FF53F8E1FDABA43B.taxon	discussion	Remarks: The spelling of the species epithet is unfortunate. In the original description, Malicky (1997) consistently spelled the epithet as “ kailishchandrai ” and provided the following etymology: “ This beautiful species is dedicated to Dr. Kailish Chandra with compliments. ” Dr. Chandra’s given name is actually spelled Kailash. Because there is no evidence of an inadvertent error in the original publication itself, The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature 1999, as amended 2020, Article 32) precludes emendation of the original spelling.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.

Cheumatopsyche chryseis is similar to Ch. concava (Ulmer 1930), Ch. chrysothemis Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1997 (in Malicky 1997 b), and Ch. copia Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1997 (in Malicky 1997 b). However, in Ch. chryseis the apical segment of each inferior appendage is slender and pointed at the apex whereas the apical segment of each inferior appendage is wide in Ch. concava and broad basally in Ch. chrysothemis and Ch. copia. Moreover tergum X is almost dome-shaped at midlength in dorsal view in Ch. chryseis whereas tergum X is almost triangularly produced at midlength in Ch. concava, blunt in Ch. chrysothemis, and with a midlength concavity in Ch. copia.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.

03F1D33EFFB0FFE2FF53FD9DFB7FA2E0.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Cheumatopsyche globosa (Ulmer 1910) is very similar to Ch. truncata Martynov 1935 described from India. Probably, Ch truncata is a synonym of Ch. globosa. Malicky 1997 b also suggested this probable synonymy while describing and illustrating the variations of Ch. globosa from Asia. Furthermore, there are considerable similarities in the colour pattern of the forewings (in both of these species it is light brown but some specimens from Thailand have bright spots) and also the wing length is the same (5 – 7 mm) as mentioned by Malicky 1997 b. The only possible difference is in the shape of tergum X in these species. Ch. simayorum Oláh & Johanson 2008 also seems to be the same species. We refrain from designating these species as synonyms pending further morphological and molecular study.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.

However, Ch. bhatrapura differs from all other species in having dark forewings with characteristic white patches whereas Ch. globosa has only grey or brightly speckled forewings without white cross bands.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.

03F1D33EFFB5FFE7FF53FBE6FCA2A0F8.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. This species has very peculiar male genitalia. Tergite VIII is very large (produced distally to cover all of the flat IX segment as well as the preanal appendages in both dorsal and lateral views. Sternite IX is flat, somewhat dorsoventrally compressed. In the original description (Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1993) there appears to be one pair of dorsobasal processes of the preanal appendages, but one pair of small membranous process also emerge from the bases of the preanal appendages (which were illustrated by Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1993; Taf. 9). Inferior appendages are also very characteristic, being narrow but with a depression just before the apical end and in ventral view very broad with an inward-directed subdistal tooth.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.

03F1D33EFFB5FFE7FF53FBE6FCA2A0F8.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The occurrence of this species in India was suspected by Malicky 2010 in ‘ Atlas of Southeast Asian Trichoptera’ but without any confirmation. So the collection of this species from Andaman and Nicobar Islands confirms his suspicion and also strengthens the evolutionary theory that these Islands were once part of the mainland (now part of the Sundaland Biodiversity hotspot).

As pointed out by Malicky (2010), this species is very similar to Oecetis iphitos Malicky 2005 and Oecetis philoktetes Malicky 2005 as all of these species belong to the Oecetis testacea Group and have a very similar color pattern on the forewings. However, Oecetis asmada has the dorsal branch of each inferior appendage very broad in lateral view, whereas in Oecetis iphitos each inferior appendage has the dorsal branch in the form of an equilateral triangle and Oecetis philoktetes has each inferior appendage with three tooth-like structures: one ventral, one dorsal, and one median tooth; from each of these teeth arises a very fine long appendage which is bent dorsad in lateral view.	en	Kaur, Simarjit, Garima, Deepti, Pandher, Manpreet Singh (2020): New Species and New Records of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) from India.
