Abstract

A checklist of the family Lepidostomatidae (Insecta, Trichoptera) from India is presented. In India, this family is represented by 66 species under 3 genera Lepidostoma Rambur, 1842 (50 spp.), Paraphlegopteryx Ulmer, 1907 (15 spp.) and Zephyropsyche Weaver, 1993 (1 sp.). Most of the species in the present study were collected during extensive surveys across the Indian Himalaya from 2008 to 2019. The Indian Himalaya Region contains highest diversity of these insects and is represented by 58 species. While only 4 species are present in south India, 3 species are found common in Himalaya and south India and only 1 species is Island species.
