Abstract
The subfamily Pantheinae is diagnosed. The genus Trisuloides Butler, 1881 of the subfamily Pantheinae is revised. Three new species (Trisuloides xizanga sp. n., T. becheri sp. n. and T. prosericea sp. n) are described from China as new. The name Trisuloides catocalina Moore, 1883 stat. rev. is recognized as valid, not a synonym of Trisuloides sericea Butler, 1881 and not a homonym of Tambana catocalina Moore, 1882 (currently placed in Antitrisuloides Holloway, 1985). The name Trisuloides luteifascia Hampson, 1894 is recognized as a junior synonym (syn. n.) of Trisuloides catocalina Moore, 1883. A key for identification of Trisuloides species based on genitalia characters is provided. The monotypic genus Disepholcia, which is closest to Trisuloides, is reviewed.
