Abstract

Two new species of ambrosia beetles Xylosandrus Reitter, 1913 (Scolytinae: Xyleborini), Xylosandrus luokengensis Lin & Gao sp. nov. and Xylosandrus nanlingensis Lin & Gao sp. nov., from Guangdong Province, South China are described. Xylosandrus trunculus Park & Smith, 2020 is reported from China for the first time, and provincial records of all known Xylosandrus are provided.
