Abstract
The genera and species in the tribe Scymnini known from China are taxonomically treated. Eight genera, including 5 subgenera, and 27 species are discussed; 13 species are described for the first time. The new taxa are: Scymnus (Scymnus) hainanensis; S. (Pullus) fujianensis; S. (P.) longisiphonulus; S. (P.) hainanicus; S. (P.) sternitus; S. (P.) comperei; S. (P.) klapperichi; S. (Nipponopullus) hoocalis; Pseudoscymnus sternalis; Axinoscymnus singaporicus; Keiscymnus koebelei; Diomus brunsuturalis; Nephus lancetapicalis. New combinations include Rhyzobius formosanus Weise, which is reassigned to the genus Scymnus (Pullus) and Pullus tainanensis Ohta, which is transferred to Pseudoscymnus.Want the full article?
