Abstract
The present synopsis is the first review of the Syntretus Foerster species distributed in Taiwan. Twelve species are revised of which seven proved to be new to science: S. choui sp. n., S. extensus sp. n., S. secutensus sp. n., S. subglaber sp. n., S. teinporalis sp. n., S. transitus sp. n. and S. varus sp. n. The rear five species are new to the fauna of Taiwan. Detailed descriptions are presented for the new species; taxonomic remarks are added to the known species. A key is provided for the twelve Syntretus species recorded in Taiwan and completed with 84 original figures of diagnostic significance. A checklist was compiled for the Syntretus species of the East Palaearctic and Oriental Regions.
