Abstract


In this paper, a new genus Gymnaetoides gen. nov. is described for the new species Gymnaetoides testaceus sp. nov. from Zhejiang. Therefore, two new combinations of this genus result, including Gymnaetoides indivisus (Zhang & Liu, 2009) comb. nov. and Gymnaetoides acutilobatus (Gorochov, 2010) comb. nov.. A key to the species of Gymnaetoides gen. nov. is provided.
