Torrenticola (Torrenticola) microdentifera Cook, 1967

Records from the study area: Maharashtra—Cook (1967); Prasad (1974); Pešić & Ranga Reddy (2009).

Remarks: Torrenticola microdentifera is similar to T. ungeri (Palaearctic), and the difference between the species ( Cook 1967) is related to the absence of well developed tubercles of P- 4 in T. microdentifera . According to Wiles (1997a), this character is known to be variable and T. microdentifera is probably a synonym of T. ungeri.

Habitat: Streams; benthos and hyporheic interstital.

Distribution: India.
