In India, the genus Hexacentrus is represented by 7 species of which 6 are morphologically characterized while one is only acoustically characterized. In this study, we describe three new species under the genus from India based on detailed morphological, stridulatory, and acoustic features.Competing Interest StatementThe authors have declared no competing interest.
