Abstract
According to the classification proposed in the previous publication by Kluge, the genus Teloganodes Eaton 1882 is divided into three subgenera distinguished only by tergalii number: the subgenus Teloganodes (with 5 pairs of tergalii on uromeres II–VI), the subgenus Dudgeodes Sartori in Sartori et al. 2008 (with 4 pairs of tergalii on uromeres II–V) and the subgenus Derlethina Sartori in Sartori et al. 2008 (with 3 pairs of tergalii on uromeres II–IV). All three subgenera are represented in Southern India. Based on the new material, additional descriptions are given to the following species: T. (Teloganodes) kodai Sartori in Sartori et al. 2008 (= Teloganodes barathyae Sivaruban et al. in Martynov et al. 2022, syn. n.); Teloganodes (Teloganodes) dentatus Navás 1932 (= T. sartorii Selvakumar et al. in Selvakumar et al. 2014, syn. n.); Teloganodes (Dudgeodes) palnius (Selvakumar et al. in Selvakumar et al. 2014) (= Dudgeodes bharathidasani Anbalagan et al. 2015, syn. n.; = Dudgeodes sartorii Srinivasan et al. 2021, syn. n.; = Dudgeodes molinerii Sivaruban et al. in Martynov et al. 2022, syn. n.); Teloganodes (Derlethina) tamiraparaniae (Selvakumar et al. in Selvakumar et al. 2014). A new species T. (Teloganodes) velutinus sp. n. is described from the Western Ghats based on larvae, female imagines reared from larvae and eggs.
