Abstract

Species of the shore-fly genus Rhynchopsilopa Hendel from China are reviewed. Four new species (Rhynchopsilopa guangdongensis sp. n., R. huangkengensis sp. n., R. jinxiuensis sp. n., R. shixingensis sp. n.) and two previously known species, R. longicornis (Okada) and R. magnicornis Hendel, are described or redescribed. A key to the species hitherto known from China is presented.
