Abstract

Five Palaearctic species of the genera Aneuropria Kieffer, 1905 and Labolips Förster, 1856 are reviewed. The generic name Valia Alekseev, 1979 is recognised as a junior synonym of Aneuropria Kieffer, 1905, and the new combination Aneuropria dentata (Alekseev, 1979), comb. nov. is established. The hitherto unknown male of Aneuropria dentata is described. A new species Labolips storozhenkoi Chemyreva, Kolyada & Ku, sp. nov. is described from Japan and South Korea. New data on the distribution of the Labolips innupta Haliday, 1857, Aneuropria dentata and A. foersteri (Kieffer, 1910) species are provided. All Palaearctic species of Aneuropria are keyed and illustrated. The diagnoses of the genera Aneuropria and Labolips are clarified, and a new combination, Coptera nilgiriensis (Sharma, 1979), comb. nov. is proposed.
