Abstract
This paper deals with the taxonomy of Helina Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 from China. Three new species, namely H. cynocercata, sp. nov., H. subhirtisurstyla, sp. nov. and H. xianggelilaensis, sp. nov., and four new junior synonyms, i.e., H. dehiscideleta Xue & Li, 2002, syn. nov. for H. paomashana Feng, 2000; H. jianchangensis Ma, 1981, syn. nov. for H. intermedia (Villeneuve, 1899); H. rariciliata Wu, 1989, syn. nov. for H. annosa (Zetterstedt, 1838); and H. subeiensis Ma & Wang, 1992, syn. nov. for H. bohemani Ringdahl, 1916 are established. An original key to identify the known 162 Chinese species is given. The type specimens are deposited in the Institute of Entomology, Shenyang Normal University.
