Abstract
The ascalaphid, Bubopsis zarudnyi Martynova, 1926 is recorded for the first time from India. Bubopsis rubrapunctata Ghosh, 1981 was the only owlfly species previously described from India from the genera. The two species are revised from a taxonomic point of view and Bubopsis zarudnyi is redescribed. The habitat and flight activity of the species is documented. Based on the re-identified specimens preserved in different collections, the distribution of the species is outlined. After examining type specimens, Bubopsis rubrapunctata is removed from the genus Bubopsis MacLachlan, 1898 and Pseudobubopsis gen. n. is erected for Pseudobubopsis rubrapunctata (Ghosh, 1981) (comb. n.). Also, the new genus is compared with Bubopsis, and generic key is provided.
