Abstract

The tribe Pselaphini is reported to occur in Xizang, with two new species being described from Mêdog and Zayü counties: Pselaphogenius dagmo Zhang & Yin, sp. nov. and Pselaphogenius xizangensis Zhang & Yin, sp. nov. Both taxa can be readily distinguished from all East Asian congeners by their external appearances, in combination with the characteristic aedeagal structures.
