Abstract

An antlion species-group of DendroleonBrauer, 1866, namely the D. pupillaris group, is defined, including five species (two described species and three new species): D. jianyuni Zheng & Liu sp. nov., D. motuoensisWang & Wang, 2008, D. pupillaris (Gerstaecker, 1893), D. wenii Zheng, Hayashi, Matsumoto & Liu sp. nov., and D. xiaohani Zheng & Liu sp. nov. We sequenced the DNA barcodes of all species to test our morphological species delimitation. The immature stage of D. jianyuni sp. nov. is also described. In addition, the generic diagnosis of Dendroleon is further discussed.https://www.zoobank.org/zoobank.org:pub:91282009-E5D4-41EB-BCD5-2B96AA4D6516.
