To the knowledge of species of the subgenus Pseudoophonus (genus Harpalus) from the Himalayan region and Southern China (Coleoptera: Carabidae)
B.M. Kataev
Abstract. Two new species of the genus Harpalus are described: H. pseudohauserianus sp. n. from Yunnan (China), separated originally by Schauberger in 1930 as an aberration of H. sinicus yunnanus Schauberger, 1930, and H. meghalayensis sp. n. from Meghalaya (NE India). H. hauserianus Schauberger, 1929, stat. rest., from China and H. meridianus Andrewes, 1923 from S India are redescribed. The geographical variation of H. indicus is discussed and the following new synonymy is proposed: H. indicus Bates, 1891 = H. eberti Jedlička, 1966, syn. n. = H. janetscheki Jedlička, 1970, syn. n. It is suggested that H. disaogashimensis Huang, 1995 may be a synonym of H. hauserianus.
