Three new species of the genus Euscelophilus Voss (Coleoptera: Attelabidae) from China

Euscelophilus Voss currently contains 14 recognisable species, all occurring in China but two also in Korea and one each also in Myanmar and Cambodia. In this paper, three additional species from China ( E. longispinus, E. gaoligongensis and E. caperratus) are described as new to science, and the male genitalia of two described species ( E. gibbicollis and E. denticulatus) are illustrated for the first time. Euscelophilidius Legalov, 2003, Cupreuscelophilus Legalov, 2005 and Euscelophiloides Legalov, 2007 are newly synonymised with Euscelophilus Voss, Euscelophilus mayongi ( Legalov & Liu, 2005) comb. n. is consequently transferred from Cupreuscelophilus to Euscelophilus and E. jingpingensis Liang, 1994 stat. rev. and E. yongshanensis Liang, 1994 stat. rev. are reinstated as valid species from synonymy with E. chinensis ( Schilsky) and E. camelus Voss, respectively.
