Abstract

A contribution to the knowledge of the malachiine genus Intybia Pascoe, 1866 from China is given. Two new species groups: Intybia klapperichi group and Intybia eversi group are defined and described. A new species, Intybia hainanensis Wang & Liu, sp. nov., of the Intybia klapperichi group is described from Hainan Province. Intybia erectodentatus (Wittmer, 1982) and Intybia concha Asano, 2015 are redescribed based on new materials collected in mainland China. A key to species groups of the genus Intybia Pascoe, 1866 in China is provided.
