(DY: corresponding author) ABSTRACT The genus Chrysotus Meigen is reported from Hainan island for the first time. Six species are recorded. The following four species are described as new to science: Chrysotus diaoluoshanus sp. nov., C. hainanensis sp. nov., C. magnuscaputus sp. nov. and C. zhouae sp. nov., Chrysotus biprojicienus Wei & Zhang and Chrysotus serratus Wang et Yang are recorded from Hainan island for the first time. A key to the species of Chrysotus from Hainan island is presented. Key words: Diptera, Dolichopodidae, Chrysotus, Hainan island, China, new species INTRODUCTION The genus Chrysotus Meigen, 1824 is the largest genus of the subfamily Diaphorinae, with more than 420 species distributed worldwide. Among them, 149 species are currently known from the Oriental region (Yang et al. 2011, Wei & Zhang 2010, Wei 2012a, Liu et al. 2013, Wei et al. 2014). Some of these species are known to occur in more than one biogeographical region. So far as known 169 species occur in China (Yang et al. 2011, Wei & Zhang 2010, Wei 2012a, Liu et al. 2013, Wei et al. 2014, Liu et al. 2015). Larvae of some species of Chrysotus feed on larva of Simulidae. Hainan Island is the second largest island of China. The island belongs to the Oriental Region and has a tropical monsoon climate. No species of the genus Chrysotus were priviously known to occur in Hainan Island. In this paper, four new species of Chrysotus are described as new to science and two species are recorded from Hainan Island for the first time. A key to the species of Chrysotus from Hainan Island is presented. MATERIAL AND METHODS The specimens on which this study is based were collected mainly in 2007 and 2009 from Hainan island, and some in 2011 from Taiwan island outskirts using sweep nets and deposited in the Entomological Museum of China Agricultural University (CAU), Beijing. Morphological terminology for adult structures mainly follows McAlpine (1981). Terms for the structures of the male genitalia follow Cumming & Wood (2009). The following abbreviations are used: acr acrostichal bristle, ad anterodorsal bristle, av anteroventral bristle, d dorsal bristle, dc dorsocentral bristle, LI fore leg, LII mid leg, LIII hind leg, pd posterodorsal bristle, v ventral bristle, CuAx ratio length of m-cu / length of distal portion of CuA.

24 CHRYSOTUS OF HAINAN ISLAND TAXONOMY Genus Chrysotus Meigen Chrysotus Meigen, 1824: 40. Type species: Musca nigripes Fabricius, 1794. Lyroneurus Loew, 1857: 38. Type species: Lyroneurus coerulescens Loew, 1857. Diagnosis The genus can be distinguished from other Diaphorinae members by the following characters: Body small to median-sized, metallic green; males and females with frons wider than face, and most males eyes contiguous on face; face parallel-sided or narrowing downward; eyes shortly haired; male eyes very narrowly separated or contiguous on face (occasionally widely separated), with enlarged facets toward face; arista long, located at tip; propleuron with 2 3 bristles on lower part, and upper part bare; R 4+5 and M parallel apically. Male genitalia: surstylus not branched, apically with short hairs and (or) 1 2 spine-like bristle; epandrial lobe long and broad; cercus small. Some species of the genus are similar to Diaphorus and Dubius, but can be separated from the others by the fr/fa (frons/face ratio) >1.0 and arista located at tip (Yang et al. 2011, Wei 2012b).

28 CHRYSOTUS OF HAINAN ISLAND Shuimanxiang, 18 52 N, 109 40 E, 620 m, 2009.V.3, D. Zhou. PARATYPE: 1 male, same as holotype. Distribution China (Hainan). Etymology The new species is dedicated to the collector Mrs Dan Zhou of the holotype of the new species. Remarks The new species is similar to Chrysotus pulcher Parent in the similar first flagellomere and the end of hypandrium behind the apex of lateral epandrial lobe, but can be separated from the latter by the apex of lateral epandrial lobe truncated and surstylus wide at base and tapered apically. In C. pulcher, the apex of lateral epandrial lobe is somewhat protruded and surstylus is not tapered apically (Yang et al. 2011). ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We are grateful to Dr. Dan Zhou (Beijing), Dr. Jie Zeng (Guangzhou), Dr. Xiaoyan Liu (Wuhan), and Dr. Shan Huo (Beijing) for collecting specimens.
