Abstract
Cylindrostethus
costalis costalis (Schmidt, 1915) [5] has been recorded for the first time
from mainland India, specifically in riverine and saline environments on Sagar
Island and Kalindi river of south 24 pargana, West Bengal. This finding extends
the known distribution of the species previously restricted to the Andaman and
Nicobar Islands and provides valuable new data on the zoogeography of the
subfamily Cylindrostethinae.
