Abstract

In this paper two new species of the subfamily Agalliinae are described from Guizhou Province, China. All the type specimens are deposited in Guizhou Agricultural College. 1. Japanagallia hamata Zhang et Li, sp. nov. (Figs.1~6) This new species resembles Japanagalla pteridis (Matsumura), but differs from the latter in the following aspects: 1) crown yellow and gena bombycinus; 2) eyes dark brown; 3) aedeagus with a small hooked basal process and a pair of subapical ones. Holotype ♂, paratypes 9♀♀, Laya of Libo county, Guizhou, 13-Ⅴ-1995, coll Cheng Xiangsheng. 2. Onukigallia fanjingensis Zhang et Li, sp. nov. (Figs.7~15) This new species allies to Onukigallia onukii (Matsumura), but distinguish able in 1) central part with black speck and black basal angle specks large in the scutellum; 2) gena black; 3) shaft of aedeagus flat, apical extention short. Holotype ♂, Fanjing Mountain, Guizhou, 10-Ⅷ-1994, coll Zhang Yazhou; paratype ♀, same data as the holotype, 9-Ⅷ-1994, coll. Li Zizhong.
