Abstract

Three previously described species of Euphitrea from Taiwan are recognized and redescribed: E. flavicornis (Chen, 1933), E. nisotroides (Chen, 1933), and E. taiwana Kimoto, 1991. Additionally, three new species from Taiwan are described: E. tsouisp. nov., E. houjayisp. nov., and E. jungchanisp. nov. The species descriptions include illustrations of aedeagi, antennae, gonocoxae, abdominal ventrite VIII, and spermathecae. Lectotypes are designated for Neorthaea flavicornis Chen, 1933 and N. nisotroides Chen, 1933.
