Abstract
The Chinese species of the Pachyprotasis pallidistigma group are revised and a key to the world species of the group isprovided. Three new species of the group from China are described: P. bilineata sp. nov. (Yunnan), P. sichuanensis sp. nov. (Sichuan), P. shennongjiai sp. nov. (Hubei). The previously known species of the group are revised.References
