Abstract
Seven new species belonging to the genus Chimarra are added to the Trichoptera fauna of India. Newly described speciesinclude Chimarra lakhwinderae, C. rifati, C. nakkiensis, C. mawsmaiensis, C. sikkimensis, C. rongliensis, and C. soloi.Males of these species are distinguishable from each other and from previously known species by consistent variation in the structure of the inferior appendages, tergite X and the phallic apparatus.References
