“…However, Indian Caenidae has ineffectively been investigated compared to other parts of the Oriental region with only two genera. So far, five species of Clypeocaenis Soldán, 1978 (Muthukatturaja et al, 2020;Srinivasan et al, 2022) and seven species of Caenis (Malzacher, 2015;Srinivasan et al, 2021Srinivasan et al, , 2023aSrinivasan et al, , 2023b have been discovered in the last decade. However, the number of undiscovered species in Caenidae is probably high compared to the discoveries that were made.…”

“…Until now, twelve species of Caenis were recorded in India: C. incurva Malzacher, 2015, C. picea Kimmins, 1947, C. piscina Kimmins, 1947, C. srinagari Traver, 1939from North India and C. kimminsis Ali, 1967, C. maratha Malzacher, 2015, C. americani Srinivasan, Sivaruban, Barathy, Malzacher & Isack, 2021, C. maduraiensis Balasubramanian & Muthukatturaja, 2021, C. kaegies Srinivasan, Sivaruban, Barathy & Isack, 2023 Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics 2024  10 (in press) Srinivasan, Sivaruban, Barathy & Isack, 2023, C. arunachalami Srinivasan, Sivaruban, Barathy & Isack, 2023and C. limai Srinivasan, Sivaruban, Barathy & Isack, 2023 from South India. However, the validity of C. kimminsis is highly questionable by several authors (Staniczek et al, 2020;Srinivasan et al, 2021) and Srinivasan et al (2023a) proposed C. kimminsis as 'species inquirenda'.…”

Caenis ulmeriana Malzacher, 2015 is recorded for the first time from the Western Ghats, India. Prior records of this species encompass Java, Sumatra, Thailand, Myanmar, and the Philippines. Notably, the Indian population of C. ulmeriana showcases variability, including slight changes in the shape of forceps in the male subimago and increased denticulation in the midclaw, a reduced number of setae in the Y-ridge of tergalius II, and differing shape of sternum IX in the larvae compared to other continental and island populations. The species number of Caenis Stephens, 1835 has now increased to twelve in India. A distributional map detailing the range of C. ulmeriana in the Oriental region is also provided herein.
