Abstract
A new species of the primarily Australasian genus Eupines King, 1866, E. crinita Li, Nomura & Yin, sp. nov., is described from China and Japan, which is also the first record of the genus from the former country. Moreover, a new distributional record of E. sphaerica (Motschulsky, 1851) from China is provided.
