A new species of the cleptoparasitic bee genus Tetralonioidella Strand, 1914, collected from Meghalaya, India is described. Only two species occur in India, namely Tetralonioidella himalayana (Bingham, 1897) and Tetralonioidella tricolor (Lieftinck, 1972). The new species, Tetralonioidella meghalayensis Dohling & Dey sp. n ., is the third species of Tetralonioidella Strand, 1914 discovered in India. An updated checklist of species along with identification keys to female species of the genus Tetralonioidella from India are given. Illustrations of the female specimens studied are also provided.
