Abstract

Two species groups of Phaonia from China were studied, the P. nymphaearum-group and P. fuscicoxa-group. Three new species are described, Phaonia bicolorantis sp. nov. in the P. nymphaearum-group, and Phaonia hirtiorbitalis sp. nov. and Phaonia nigrifuscicoxa sp. nov. in the P. fuscicoxa-group. A key to the species groups and subgroups of Chinese Phaonia, and keys to the species of the P. nymphaearum-group and P. fuscicoxa-groups, are included.
