| - A large material of Chironomidae composed of adults, pupae, pupal exuviae and larvae were collected between 1996 and 2022 in New Caledonia (Grande Terre) using Surber, drift and swift nets and Malaise traps. Examination of the captured imagines revealed the presence of three new Thienemanniella species (T. neocaledonica sp. n., T. noumeana sp. n. and T. sarrameana sp. n.), which are described. Typical common unusual characters of the three new species are: antenna 10-segmented; transverse sternapodeme straight; phallapodeme bifid to tong shaped. Main differentiating characters are: - in T. neocaledonica sp. n. (antenna 385 [mu]m long, AR 0.28, superior volsella absent, only the inferior volsella with hooked apex); - in T. noumeana sp. n. (antenna 285 [mu]m long, AR 0.50, superior and inferior volsella differently shaped); - in T. sarrameana sp. n. (antenna 425 [mu]m long, AR 0.37, superior and inferior volsella similarly shaped, both are triangular with pointed apex, gonostylus massive). Therefore, the three new species appear to belong to local biogeographic representatives, which deserve greater consideration and conservation measures. To date, the genus Thienemanniella is represented worldwide by 55 valid species, of which only one (T. trivittata Goetghebuer, 1935) is reported from the Australasian Region. Consequently, the current 3 descriptions increase the total number, worldwide of known Thienemanniella species to 58. Comments on their taxonomic position, ecology with key to known male adult from New Caledonia are highlighted.
