Abstract: A new species of the genus AnomalaSamouelle, 1819, Anomala consanguinea sp.
nov. is described from Hainan and Guangdong Provinces, southern China. It is
closely related to Oriental Anomala esmeraldaProkofiev, 2015, A. russiventris
Fairmaire, 1893, and A. ineptaOhaus, 1916. Diagnostic characters of these
species are provided and compared. In addition, their relationships are briefly
discussed. Anomala ineptais recorded from Sabah, Malaysia for the first
time.used in previous literature. Although both of the species agreed well with
each other in most morphological characters of the worker, we tentatively retain
the separation of these species based on differences in the head sculpture, eye
and ocelli sizes. The worker, queen, and male of C. sauteri, and the worker of
C. costatus are here redescribed with the first provision of COI DNA barcode
data. In addition, C. merimbunensis Yamada & Eguchi sp. nov. is described
from Brunei based on workers and males from a single colony. A key to valid
Chrysapace species is also provided.
