Abstract

The genus Tovlinius Zaitzev is a Palaearctic genus with just one previously described species, T. albissimus Zaitzev. Tovlinius is here recorded from China for the first time, and two new species T. pyramidatus sp. n. and T. turriformis sp. n. are described and illustrated. A key to the genera of Bombyliinae from China and a second key to the World species of Tovlinius are also presented herein.
