Abstract

The tachyporine genus Lacvietina Herman is represented in China by two species: L. punctatissima (Hayashi) from Taiwan and L. lii (Li, Tang & Zhu) from Guizhou. Here we described a third species, L. nabanhensis Chang, Li & Yin, sp. nov., from Yunnan. Moreover, new collecting data and a redescription of L. lii are provided.
