Abstract
The genus Polyzonus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Cerambycinae) was established by Castelnau in 1840. Gahan (1906) recorded 19 species in the Indian cerambycid fauna. Pandy (1980) reviewed this genus with 33 species, and the species, P. opacus Pic was absent in his key of the original description. The descriptions of P. latefasciatus Hüdepohl, 1998 and P. hefferni Vives, Bentanachs & Chew Kea Foo, 2008 brought the number of described species in the genus to 35 worldwide.
Gressitt (1951) listed nine Polyzonus species in the Chinese cerambycid fauna. Both Hua (2002) and Fu (2006) listed thirteen species in China. In this paper, a new species is described, bringing the number of Chinese species in the genus Polyzonus to 14.
