摘要

Specimens of the crane fly genus Helius Lepeletier & Serville, 1828 from Sichuan, China are examined and studied. Three Helius species all belonging to the nominotypical subgenus are recognized, of which H. (H.) pallidissimoides Xu, Ma & Zhang, sp. nov. is described and illustrated as new to science, and H. (H.) pallidissimus Alexander, 1930 and H. (H.) franckianus Alexander, 1940 are redescribed and illustrated. For the first time, descriptions and illustrations are provided for the male of H. (H.) pallidissimus and the female of H. (H.) franckianus.
