Abstract

This paper deals with three new species of the subfamily Evacanthinae from Yunnan Province,China:Bundera rufistriana Li et Wang sp.nov.,B.pellucida Li et Wang sp.nov.and Taperus lanpingensis Li et Wang sp.nov.The type specimens are deposited in the Institute of Entomology,Guizhou University. 1 Bundera rufistriana Li et Wang,sp.nov.(Fig.1) Corpus length (incl.teg.):♂6.0-6.2 mm,♀6.2-6.5 mm. This species is similar to Bundera maculata Kuoh in appearance,but can be distinguished from latter by the male gena and outside of lora grey,the posterior area of pronotum pallide-flavens,costal area and middle clava of forewing aurantiacus. Holotype ♂,paratypes 7♂♂,9♀♀,Pianma (26.15°N,98.45°E),Yunnan Province,17-18-Ⅷ-2000,coll.LI Zi-Zhong and YANG Mao-Fa. 2 Bundera pellucida Li et Wang,sp.nov.(Fig.2) Corpus length (incl.teg.):♂5.0-5.2 mm,♀5.2-5.4 mm. This species is related to Bundera venata Distant in appearance,but differs in the outside of lora with a longitudinal spot black,pronotum with 凸-shaped black spot,and anterior margin of forewing also black. Holotyepe ♂,paratypes7 ♂♂,5♀♀,Lanping (26.28°N,99.20°E),Yunnan Province,12-Ⅷ-2000,coll.LI Zi-Zhong and YANG Mao-Fa. 3 Taperus lanpingensis Li et Wang,sp.nov.(Fig.3) Corpus length (incl,teg.)♂6.5 mm. This species is allied to Taperus fasciatus Li et Wang,but can be easily distinguished from latter by the body flavotestaceous,scutellum with four longitudinal stripes fuscous,pygofer side in lateral aspect with caudodorsal process. Holotype ♂,Lanping(26.28°N,99.20°E),Yunnan Province,12-Ⅷ-2000,coll.LI Zi-Zhong.
