Abstract

This paper, the fourth in the Batanta Island series on Trichoptera, contains 29 new records of 12 caddisfly species collected during our systematic and concentrated diversity survey on the Batanta Island. The monobasic macronematine genus Leptopsyche, known only from a single lost male specimen, is discovered in the island and represented by two new species: Leptopsyche kormos sp. n., Leptopsyche vilagos sp. n. A new hydropsychine genus Batantapsyche with Batantapsyche juhaszi sp. n. type species is described. The differential diagnosis of the new genera in the Hydropsyche genus subcluster of the Hydropsyche genus cluster is elaborated in a matrix table. A large and dark hydropsychine species, Hydropsyche sotet sp. n. is described as a sibling of Hydropsyche lapos Oláh, 2015 described from Arfak Mts of the main island.
