An updated checklist of the Caddisflies belonging to the one of most diverse family Hydropsychidae Curtis, (1835) of order Trichoptera is prepared based on the recent published scientific records as well as online resources. To remove disparity, the species localities are put into the current Indian states which were earlier united or were part of original state based on the type locality mentioned in the original description of species. At present the family Hydropsychidae is represented by 4 subfamilies, 15 genera and 128 species from India.

Abstract


An updated checklist of the Caddisflies belonging to the one of most diverse family Hydropsychidae Curtis, (1835) of order Trichoptera is prepared based on the recent published scientific records as well as online resources. To remove disparity, the species localities are put into the current Indian states which were earlier united or were part of original state based on the type locality mentioned in the original description of species. At present the family Hydropsychidae is represented by 4 subfamilies, 15 genera and 128 species from India.
