Research on the Geographical Distribution of Anthocoridae sensu lato in China

A study was made of the 20 genera,93 species of Anthocoridae sensu lato through an insect fauna analysis.In this fauna there are 33 Oriental species,about 35.48% of all,24 Oriental-Palaearctic species,about 25.81% of all,and 23 Palaearctic species,about 24.73% of all.Their distribution patterns are segregated into 5 categories,i.e.Chinese endemic distribution pattern,World distribution pattern,East Asia endemic distribution pattern,distribution pattern in Palaearctic and Oriental Regions,and Holearctic distribution pattern.The analysis of the animal geographical fauna of China shows that the Chinese Anthocoridae sensu lato in Southwestern China and that in Southern China,being of the most species and about 32.26% of all,are closely related to each other.
