Abstract
The Chinese fauna represents a small portion of the species diversity of the psyllid genus Pseudophacopteron (Phacopteronidae) of the world. Here, Pseudophacopteron from China is revised, and four species are recognized. Pseudophacopteron quinquipannis sp. nov. is described; Pseudophacopteron alstonium is synonymized with Pseudophacopteron tuberculatum; Pseudophacopteron album, Pseudophacopteron aphanamixis and P. tuberculatum are redescribed. Comparison is made between the four species and Phacopteron. The latter possesses unsplit fields of radular spinules in cells m1, m2 and cu1 of the fore wing, and thick tibiae covered by dense long and slender setae, which are different from Pseudophacopteron.http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:08B185EB-462F-46CF-B4CB-B733D1E1A864
