Abstract

Four new species, viz, kurukshetrensis, carinafus, nigrofucus and flavopilosus, collected under the light sources from various localities in the forests of North India, are described. These are separated on the basis of body colouq, dimension of prothorax and presence or absence of carinae on posterior angles.
