| Sumario: | This study revised the subgenus <i>Burlinius</i> Lopatin, 1965, of the genus <i>Cryptocephalus</i> Geoffroy, 1762 (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Cryptocephalinae, Cryptocephalini), and describes four new species, namely, <i>Cryptocephalus</i> (<i>Burlinius</i>) <i>longchiensis</i> sp. nov., <i>C.</i> (<i>Burlinius</i>) <i>baowenzhengi</i> sp. nov., <i>C.</i> (<i>Burlinius</i>) <i>tomurensis</i> sp. nov., and <i>C.</i> (<i>Burlinius</i>) <i>glabrelegantulus</i> sp. nov. The species <i>C.</i> (<i>Burlinius</i>) <i>turpis</i> Chen, 1942, and <i>C</i>. <i>(Burlinius</i>) <i>yangweii</i> Chen, 1942, were revalidated and treated as distinct species. Another four species were transferred into this subgenus from the subgenus <i>Cryptocephalus</i>, namely, <i>C. (Burlinius) flavolimbatus</i> Pic, 1920 (stat. nov.), <i>C. (Burlinius) pusus</i> Schöller, 2009 (stat. nov.), <i>C. (Burlinius) scutemaculatus</i> Tan, 1992 (stat. nov.), and <i>C. (Burlinius) shaowuanus</i> Gressitt & Kimoto, 1961 (stat. nov.). Two species (including one more subspecies) were removed out of this subgenus, namely, <i>C. (Burlinius) nigrolimbatus</i> Jacoby, 1890, <i>C. (Burlinius) pallidipes</i> Pic, 1927, and <i>C. (Burlinius) pallidipes nakatae</i> Gressitt & Kimoto, 1961; they were transferred into the subgenus <i>Cryptocephalus</i>. Thus, the subgenus <i>Burlinius</i> Lopatin includes now a total of 26 species in China according to our revision. A key to all the Chinese species of this subgenus is provided as well as color illustrations and line drawings for the general habitus and genital structures. |
