Abstract: (391 Views)
Andreimyrme substriolata (Chen, 1957) and Odontomutilla fletcheri Lelej, Terine & Girish Kumar, 2020 (Hymenoptera, Mutillidae) are newly reported from India. O. fletcheri was only recorded from Sri Lanka till now & A. substriolata was only known from various Southeast Asian countries (China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam), in the present study these species are discovered from India which pronounce the geographical affinities of India with Sri Lanka and Southeast Asian countries and vice versa. Diagnosis, figures, distribution maps and remarks of these species are provided.
