Abstract

The Labomimus Sharp fauna in Taiwan is represented by a single species. In this paper, three new species are described and illustrated: L. dadongmontis sp. nov., L. dilaticeps sp. nov., and L. sugayai sp. nov. The key to species of the L. shibatai Sawada-group is updated to accommodate the two new species placed in this group.
