Abstract: Three new species of the flower bug genus Orius Wolff, 1811 (Anthocorinae:
Oriini) are described as new, namely Orius (Orius) ekaii sp. nov., O. (Orius)
nigromaritus sp. nov., and O. (Xylorius) paveli sp. nov., all from Nepal. The
plant association and habitat are documented for each new species. Habitus
images of live individuals and scanning electron micrographs are also provided
to aid in proper recognition of their identities. A checklist of Orius species
known from South Asia (SAARC nations) is incorporated; Orius indicus (Reuter,
1884) is herein placed in the subgenus DimorphellaReuter, 1884.
