An annotated checklist of the chrysidid wasps (Hymenoptera, Chrysididae) from China.

An annotated checklist of the Chinese Chrysididae is provided. The list includes 188 species and subspecies in twenty three genera of five subfamilies. Four species are proposed as new combinations: Hedychridiumcupreumasianum (Linsenmaier, 1997), Philoctetesdeauratus (Mocsáry, 1914), Philoctetesmordvilkoi (Semenov-Tian-Shanskij, 1932), and Pseudomalushypocritus (du Buysson, 1893). Two species are revalidated: Chrysisconsobrina Mocsáry, 1889, and Philoctetesmongolicus (du Buysson, 1901). Historical data with comments on the current taxonomic position, and the pictures of sixty five types are also given.
