Abstract

The genusCyrtonotulaUvarov, 1939 (Blaberidae, Epilamprinae) is recorded for the first time from Hainan Island, China. Three new species,Cyrtonotula epunctataWang & Wang,sp. nov.,C. maculosaWang & Wang,sp. nov., andC. longialataWang & Wang,sp. nov., are described based on morphological data and a molecular analysis using Automatic Barcode Gap Discovery (ABGD). Additional barcode data of blaberid species, including these three new species, are provided to facilitate future species identification. Morphological photographs and habitat photos of these new species, as well as a key to the known species, are provided.
