Presently known from three provinces of China: Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong. Etymology. This new species is named for China, the country of its type locality. Remarks. Members of this new species are similar to those of D. unidentatus (Macleay). However, the lateral margins of the pronota are more rounded before the middle (Fig. 20), the femora have a longer black portion, the tibiae are yellow, and the genae are more rounded than in D. unidentatus members. They are similar also to D. schultzei (Heller) members in shape of the pronotum and elytral outer angles, but differ from the latter in having green and coppery elytra and their tibiae and bases of femora all pale yellow (all black in D. schultzei).Published as part of Liang, Hongbin & Kavanaugh, David H., 2007, Review of the Genus Dendrocellus Schmidt-Göbel (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dryptini), with Descriptions of Seven New Species, pp. 1-39 in The Coleopterists Bulletin (Oxford, England) (Oxford, England) 61 (1) on pages 1-39, DOI: 10.1649/934.1, http://zenodo.org/record/546166

Qushi, Tengchong County, Baoshan Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China. Diagnosis. This new species seems to be most closely related to O. melitopus Bates and O. nakanei Kasahara, based on chaetotaxy of the pronotum; but adults are readily distinguishable from those of O. melitopus by the rounded elytral apices at the sutural angles, and from those of O. nakanei by the narrow pronotum and reduced number (2 in males and 6 in females) of marginal setae on the sixth visible sternum.

Legs long and slender; protarsomeres I–III slightly dilated in male, with two rows of adhesive hairs on ventral side; tarsomere IV bilobed apically. Male genitalia with aedeagus long and slender, slightly arcuate at basal one-third in lateral view, then almost straight toward rounded apex (Fig. 7); in dorsal view, apical lamella slightly tapered towards apex, nearly as long as wide (Fig. 8); left paramere broadly subovate and rounded at apex (Fig. 9); right paramere small and narrow, with rounded apex (Fig. 10). Female reproductive tract as in Figure 11; basal gonocoxite I with apical fringe of 13 setae; apical gonocoxite II with 7 dorsolateral and 1 dorsomedial ensiform setae; bursa copulatrix without microtrichia, spermatheca slightly arcuate, spermathecal gland with spherical apex. Distribution. Presently known from Tengchong, Baoshan and Longling counties, on both western and eastern slopes of the Gaoligong Mountains in western Yunnan Province, China. Etymology. This new species is named for its narrow pronotum.Published as part of Liang, Hongbin & Kavanaugh, David H., 2005, A Review of Genus Onycholabis Bates (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Platynini), with Description of a New Species from Western Yunnan, China, pp. 507-520 in The Coleopterists Bulletin 59 (4) on pages 514-516, DOI: 10.1649/837.

This species is named for the pattern of two different colors on the elytra. Remarks. Members of this new species are similar to those of African Dryptini species Drypta ruficollis Dejean, 1831, Drypta thoracica Boheman, 1848, and Dendrocellus australis Péringuey in having red pronota, but differ from them in having slender tarsal claws with short pectinations (in Drypta ruficollis and Drypta thoracica specimens, the tarsal claws are smooth; and in Dendrocellus australis specimens, the tarsal claws have long pectinations). The bicolored elytral color pattern and effaced elytral striae appear to be unique in the genus (in other members of the genus, the elytra are unicolored, and all striae are distinct).Published as part of Liang, Hongbin & Kavanaugh, David H., 2007, Review of the Genus Dendrocellus Schmidt-Göbel (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dryptini), with Descriptions of Seven New Species, pp. 1-39 in The Coleopterists Bulletin (Oxford, England) (Oxford, England) 61 (1) on pages 1-39, DOI: 10.1649/934.1, http://zenodo.org/record/546166
