Abstract

This paper describes three new species of the genus Anatkina Young, 1986 collected from China. The type specimens are deposited in the Anhui Agricultural College.1. Anatkina annulata Kuoh et Zhang, sp. nov. (fig. 1)This species resembles Anatkina infecta (Distant), but differs in the body yellowish brown, the pronotum with two ∞-shaped lines at apical area and with two U-shaped stripes and two irregular markings at basal area, the connective Ⅴ-shaped, the apex of pygofer processes diverged.Length: (?) 7.0-7.3mm.Holotype (?) and paratype 1 (?) , Fujian, 1978-Ⅹ-9.2. Anatkina rubromaculata Kuoh et Zhang, sp. nov. (fig. 2)This species can be readily distinguished from the other species in the genus by the pronotum with two black oval markings and with posterior margin straight, the forewing with five red markings, the connective U-shaped and by the style sickle-shaped.Length: (?) 12.0mm, (?) 12.0-12.5mm.Holotype (?) , allotype (?) and paratype 1 (?), Tibet, 1983-Ⅳ-24.3. Anatkina fumosa Kuoh et Zhang, sp. nov. (fig. 3)This species resembles Anatkina horishana (Matsumura), but differs in the body pale yellow, the pronotum with two black markings at apical area and four black markings at basal area, and in the apex of the paraphysis with two little triangular processes.Length: (?) 10.1mm.Holotype (?) , Hainan, 1984-Ⅶ-22.
