We present an annotated catalogue of the Lepidoptera family Gelechiidae of India, comprising 351 species in 80 genera, encompassing seven subfamilies. The Indian fauna represents 7.47% of global gelechiid species diversity (i.e., 4,700 species in 500 genera). Among the seven subfamilies, Dichomeridinae is the best represented (122 species in four genera), followed by Gelechiinae (76 species in 38 genera), Anacampsinae (70 species in 16 genera), Thiotrichinae (49 species in five genera), Anomologinae (26 species in nine genera), Apatetrinae (seven species in seven genera), and Physoptilinae(single species). Information on type locality, type repository, synonyms, geographical distribution, hosts, natural enemies, and references to illustrations are provided. We also reviewed the history of descriptive work on the Gelechiidae of India, and resolved ambiguities regarding the current status of some species.
我们提供了印度麦蛾科（Lepidoptera：Gelechiidae）的注释目录，包括 80 属 351 种，涵盖 7 个亚科。印度动物群代表了全球麦蛾科物种多样性的 7.47%（即 500 属 4700 种）。在七个亚科中，Dichomeridinae 是最具代表性的（四个属 122 种），其次是 Gelechiinae（38 属 76 种）、Anacampsinae（16 属 70 种）、Thiotrichinae（五个属 49 种）、Anomologinae（九个属 26 种）、Apatetrinae（七个属七种）和 Physoptilinae（单种）。提供了关于模式产地、模式储存库、同义词、地理分布、寄主、天敌和插图参考文献的信息。我们还回顾了印度麦蛾科描述性工作的历史，并解决了一些物种当前状况的歧义。
