Abstract
The genus Meridindia Ghauri, 1982 (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae: Pentatominae: Halyini) is redescribed along with the description of Meridindia magnolia sp. nov. from India (Karnataka and Tamil Nadu). Meridindia kaniza Ghauri, 1982 and Meridindia salmana Ghauri, 1982 are redescribed based on type material. Meridindia farhata Ghauri, 1982 is considered junior subjective synonym of M. kaniza. Besides, a key to species of Meridindia is provided and DNA barcode sequences of M. salmana and M. magnolia sp. nov. are obtained and reported.
