1043 (87) - Pages 87-102Diplura Börner, 1904 remains poorly documented in Asia, and despite India’s status as a megadiverse country, it is currently represented by only 18 recognized species or subspecies. Many of them are poorly described, lacking key diagnostic features, which ultimately leads to taxonomic ambiguity, and impedes reliable taxonomic decisions. This study describes a new species of the genus Lepidocampa Oudemans, 1890, Lepidocampa labiformis sp. nov., and provides a comprehensive taxonomic account (re-description) of poorly described Lepidocampa weberi nepalensis Condé, 1993, collected from the Eastern Himalayan region of India.
