Abstract

Two genera and 33 taxa of Megalopodinae are recognized in China. Cly-thraxeloma is synonymized with Poecilomorpha, and Colobaspis with Temnaspis. Six species: Clythraxeloma cyanipennis Kraatz, 1879; Temnaspis discolineata Pic, 1938; Temnaspis downesi Baly, 1859; Temnaspis laosensis Pic, 1922; Temnaspis metadata Pic, 1926; and Temnaspis mouhoti Baly, 1864 are transferred to Poecilomorpha. Six species: Colobaspis flavonigra Fairmaire, 1894; Colobaspis formosana Reineck, 1923; Colobaspis fraxini Kimiya, 1986; Colobaspis sauteri Reineck, 1923; Colobaspis shirakii Chûjô, 1932; and Poecilomorpha testacea Gressitt & Kimoto, 1961 are transferred to Temnaspis. Poecilomorpha downesi (Baly) = Poecilomorpha penae Gressitt, 1942, and Temnaspis sauteri (Reineck) = Colobaspis rubi Chûjô, 1932 are new synonymies. Eight species/ subspecies: Poecilomorpha assatnensis as-samensis (Jacoby), 1908; Poecilomorpha discolineata (Pic); Poecilomorpha laosensis (Pic); Poecilomorpha maculata (Pic); Poecilomorpha mouhoti (Baly); Temnaspis bonneuili Pic, 1947; Temnaspis japonica Baly, 1873; and emnaspis vitalisi (Pic), 1922 are new records from China. A key to the Chinese genera and a check-list of the species are given.
