A comparative study of the external male genitalia in the subfamily Zeugophorinae, and a new species of genus Zeugophora (Coleoptera, Megalopodidae) from China

The external male genitalia of 21 Chinese species of the genus <i>Zeugophora</i> (subfamily Zeugophorinae) are compared. A key is compiled to Chinese <i>Zeugophora</i> species based on external male genitalia with aid of other external morphological traits. One new species, Zeugophora (Pedrillia) liupanshanensis Li & Liang, <b>sp. nov.</b>, is described from Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, China.
