Abstract: 

Three new species, Xanthochorema nathaliae, X. christinae and X. johnwardi (Trichoptera, Hydrobiosidae), are described from New Caledonia, based on male and female genitalia. In addition, the females of X. bifurcatum Schmid, 1989 and X. calcaratum Schmid, 1989 are described for the first time, together with re-description of the males. A key to males is given for all described species, as well as a key to females for all species except X. paniensis Ward & Mary, 2000 and X. neocaledonia Johanson, 2002 for which the females are not yet collected.
