If you lose your passport and have evisa will there be a record/paper trail when entering on the new passport?
Answer summary
If you lose your passport while holding an eVisa for Thailand, it is crucial to file a police report regarding the loss. When you enter Thailand with your new passport, you should have the printed PDF of your eVisa and the police report ready to present to the immigration officer. The new passport will also reflect the old passport number on the biographic page, and your biometric data, including face photo and fingerprints, will link your identity to both passports.

usually the first time you enter with a new passport after you lost the old one, you should have the PDF of the DTV eVisa printed out and the police report stating you lost the original passport along with the new passport.

That just makes it easier for the officer when they stamp you in
