Abstract

Two new species, Heteroconisyunnanensis sp. nov. and Heteroconisorbicularis sp. nov., are described from China. Both species differ from their congeners in characters of the male genitalia. Heteroconisterminalis (Banks, 1913) is redescribed based on examined Chinese specimens. A key to the adult males of Heteroconis from China is provided.

Keywords: Aleuropteryginae; dusty lacewings; identification key; morphology; taxonomy.
