Encentridophorus (Encentridophorus) sarasini Walter, 1915

Records from the study area: Maharashtra, Karnataka—“ Encentridophorus indicus “ Cook (1967); “ E. indicus “ Prasad (1974).

Remarks: According to Cook (1986) the specimens from India tend to have fewer swimming hairs on III-L-5 (three dorsally, six ventrally) and its possible that, after additional study on the variability of Encentridophorus sarasini, the Indian populations (orginally described as E. indicus Cook 1967) may prove to be a different taxon.

Habitat: Ponds and slowly flowing streams.

Distribution: New Caledonia, India, Australia, New Guinea.
