Annotated checklist of ephemeroptera of the Indian subregion

A new species of Indoganodes Selvakumar, Sivaramakrishnan & Jacobus, 2014 (Ephemeroptera, Teloganodidae) from Sri Lanka

“…Presently, only the narrow Palk Strait separates Sri Lanka and India. Although mayflies have winged stages capable of dispersal, the teloganodid fauna of the island shares no species with India or other countries of Indian subregion, which is in contrast to the vast number of other mayfly families ( Sivaramakrishnan et al 2009 ). All species of Teloganodidae found in Sri Lanka are island endemics.…”

Diversity and abundance of mayflies (Insecta: Ephemeroptera) in Achenkovil River, southern Western Ghats, Kerala, India

“…Ephemeroptera includes a small order of hemimetabolous insects with approximately 3,500 species, 450 genera, and 42 families distributed globally (Hamada et al 2018). The Ephemeroptera of the Oriental region was represented by 390 species, 84 genera, and 20 families out of which four suborders, 15 families, 60 genera, and 204 species occur in the Indian subregion (Sivaramakrishnan et al 2009). According to Vasanth et al (2023), the Ephemeroptera of Indian Himalaya includes 10 families, 34 genera, and 89 species.…”

“…According to Vasanth et al (2023), the Ephemeroptera of Indian Himalaya includes 10 families, 34 genera, and 89 species. The Ephemeroptera of India was represented by four suborders, 15 families, 59 genera, and 172 species (Sivaramakrishnan et al 2020) and the Western Ghats of India alone comprises 13 families, 42 genera and 82 species (Sivaramakrishnan et al 2020). After 2020, more than 60 new species of mayflies were described in India by various researchers (Balasubramanian & Muthukatturaja 2021;Martynov et al 2021;Srinivasan et al 2022;Kluge et al 2022;Muthukatturaja & Balasubramanian 2022;Sivaruban et al 2022;Vasanth et al 2023).…”

A New Species ofLabiobaetisNovikova & Kluge, 1987 (Ephemeroptera: Baetidae) from the Southern Western Ghats in India, with Comments on the Taxonomic Status ofLabiobaetis

“…Species of Baetidae described in several earlier publications (Kapur and Kripalani 1963;Dubey 1970Dubey , 1971 have not been reexamined in the context of the current generic concept of Labiobaetis, because descriptions of the crucial larval stage are unavailable. However, around 15 nominal species, mostly belonging to molawinensis species group of the Oriental region of Baetis, were transferred to Labiobaetis (McCafferty and Waltz 1995;Sivaramakrishnan et al 2009).…”
