Abstract

This paper presents diagnoses, descriptions, photographs of habitus and genitalia, and distribution of three Asian saperdine genera, Mandibularia Pic, Mimocagosima Breuning, and Parastenostola Breuning. Mandibularia humeralis Gressitt, 1951 is transferred to Mimocagosima. Mandibularia quadricolor Gressitt, 1951 is transferred to Parastenostola and regarded as a junior synonym of P. brunnipes (Gahan). Parastenostola nigroantennata sp. nov. from Mainland China and P. nigroantennata taiwanensis subsp. nov. from Taiwan are described. Keys to these genera and to species of Parastenostola and Mimocagosima are given. This study has brought the total number of species and subspecies of these genera to six.
