Leafhopper genera and species of the tribe Mukariini from the Indian subcontinent are revised. Nine genera and 22 species including two new genera, one new subgenus and 12 new species are dealt with. The new taxa described are Aalinga gen. nov. with its type species Aalinga brunoflava sp. nov. (India: Andaman Islands), Buloria indica sp. nov. (India: Karnataka). Buloria zeylanica sp. nov. (Sri Lanka), Flatfronta bella sp. nov. (India: Karnataka; Bangladesh), Mohunia bifurcata sp. nov. (Myanmar), Mukaria omani sp. nov. (India: Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh), Mukaria vakra sp. nov. (India: Karnataka), Mukariella gen. nov. with its type species Mukariella daii sp. nov. (India: Manipur), Myittana (Benglebra) cornuta sp. nov. (India: Karnataka), Myittana (Myittana) distincta sp. nov. (India: Karnataka), Myittana (Savasa) subgen. nov. with its type species Myittana (Savasa) constricta sp. nov. (India: Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Uttarakhand) and Scaphotettix arcuatus sp. nov. (India: West Bengal, Meghalaya, Mizoram). Genera Buloria Distant (new placement), Crispina Distant (new placement) and Myittana Distant (new placement) are placed in the tribe Mukariini. Genus Mohunia is redefined based on the study of its type species. Benglebra Mahmood & Ahmed 1969 is synonymised with Myittana Distant 1908 and considered as its subgenus. Myittana (Benglebra) alami (Mahmood & Ahmed) comb. nov., Myittana (Savasa) bipunctata (Mahmood & Ahmed) comb. nov.. Myittana (Benglebra) introspina (Chen & Yang 2007) comb. nov. and Mukariella bambusana (Li & Chen) comb. nov. are proposed; the first two species were earlier placed in the genus Benglebra, the third species in the genus Mohunia and the fourth in the genus Mukaria. Genera Flatfronta Chen & Li and Myittana are new records for India and Scaphotettix striata Dai & Zhang is a new record for the Indian subcontinent and Sri Lanka. All taxa dealt with are described and illustrated and keys for genera and their species are also given.

Three New Species

The Oriental leafhopper genus Parallygus Melichar is revised and redescribed based on study of its type species, P. divar-icatus Melichar, from Sri Lanka. Based on its paired aedeagal shafts, a feature of some other tribes, it is only tentativelyretained in Athysanini. Three new species, Parallygus burmindicus Viraktamath & Webb, sp. nov. (India: West Bengal,Meghalya; Myanmar: Mishmi Hills), P. jiuhuaensis Dai & Zhang, sp. nov. (China: Anhui) and P. rameshi Viraktamath &Webb, sp. nov. (India: West Bengal) are described and illustrated together with P. divaricatus Melichar and Parallygusguttatus Matsumura comb. reinstated described from Taiwan. The latter species is reinstated into its original genus Pa-rallygus from Phlepsius and is also recorded from mainland China and India (new records). A key to species is also provided.

This paper synthesizes knowledge of caddisflies belonging to the genus Kisaura Ross 1956 from India. The study is based on collection expeditions undertaken since 2008 in streams of the Indian Himalayan region and some of its contiguous states. The species newly described here include Kisaura sangtam sp. nov. (Nagaland); K. acuta sp. nov., (Uttarakhand); and K. rotunda sp. nov. and K. teestaensis sp. nov. (both from Sikkim). Species reported for the first time from India include Kisaura longispina (Kimmins 1955) (from Uttarakhand); K. laban Malicky & Chantaramongkol 2009 (in Malicky 2009, Arunachal Pradesh); K. rossi (Kimmins 1955) (from Sikkim, Mizoram, Himachal Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh); K. surasa Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1993 (Uttarakhand); K. filiformis Mey 1996 (from Himachal Pradesh); K. pectinata (Ross 1956) (from West Bengal); and K. intermedia (Kimmins 1955) and K. cina Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1993 (both from Arunachal Pradesh). With these additions the genus Kisaura is represented by 39 species, 35 of which have been described previously (27 described originally from India and 8 new records for India) and 4 are new species.

Two new species of genus Hydromanicus Brauer 1865 are described and illustrated: Hydromanicus religiosus sp. nov. and Hydromanicus sikkimensis sp. nov. (both from Sikkim). Potamyia phaidra Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1997 (from Meghalaya) and Cheumatopsyche chrysothemis Malicky & Chantaramongkol 1997 and Hydromanicus inferior Chantaramongkol & Malicky 1995 (both from West Bengal) are also reported for the first time from India. Further, the species Potamyia trenhona Oláh & Barnard 2006 (in Oláh et al. 2006) is considered a synonym of P. phaidra based on the similarity in wing venation, male genitalic appendages, and phallic structure.
