Abstract

Duolandrevus crickets are brown, smooth, shiny and bear reduced tegmina. They are forest species and have an equatorial distribution. Only the subgenus Eulandrevus of this genus, containing three species, has been recorded from China. Here, an additional species is described, recently discovered on Hainan Island, China. This species is similar to Duolandrevus (Eulandrevus) hongkongae Otte, 1988, but differs in body size and details of the elytra and genitalia. The description and illustrations of the new species Duolandrevus hainanensis are provided.
