Abstract

The subfamily Meloinae from Xizang of China is revised: totally 8 genera and 34 species are recorded; Meloe (Meloe) scabrus sp. nov. is described and illustrated as new to science; Mylabris (Chalcabris) bistillata Tan, 1981, stat. rev. is transferred from Hycleus; and a key to the species is presented. Three species, Lytta battonii Kaszab, 1962, Lytta kryzhanovskyi Kaszab, 1962 and Hycleus cichorii (Linnaeus, 1758), were wrongly recorded in Xizang.
