Abstract

In China, only one genus within the subfamily Masarinae was recorded. In this paper, the nominate genus of the subfamily, Masaris Fabricius, 1793, is newly recorded and described in detail from China, with the illustrations of the species Masaris longicornis (Kuznetzov, 1923). Meanwhile, some field observation records of M. longicornis are provided for the first time.
