Coleoptera comprise 198 families and over 440,000 species to date, of which 143 35,000 are known in China. Of these, only 64 have been recorded Guangdong Province, fewer than Hong Kong. To investigate the insect diversity Guangdong, numerous specimens were collected from Nanling Mountains Greater Bay Area using various methods, 200,000 assigned families. Thus, a preliminary study beetles at family-level is carried out based on examined historical records. An updated checklist beetle increases number 111, Eupsilobiidae for first time China new species, Eidoreus haizhuensis sp. nov. described here, demonstrating importance persistent collecting with different methods diversity. Habitus images most occurring provided. And records compared detail published records, showing that more may potentially be found requiring further field work taxonomists working niche groups.

Cheirotonus jansoni (Jordan, 1898), a beetle species of ecological and ornamental significance, is predominantly found in southern China. With limited dispersal ability, it classified as Class 2 protected In this study, the widely employed maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model ensemble Biomod2 were applied to simulate C. habitat suitability China under current environmental conditions based on available distribution data multiple variables. The optimized MaxEnt demonstrated improved accuracy robust predictive capabilities, making preferred choice for simulating dynamic changes potentially suitable habitats future climate scenarios. Protection gaps further identified through analyses overlap between nature reserves highly areas jansoni. established models indicated that primarily resides southeastern mountainous regions below 2000 m, with altitude 1000–2000 m. Future scenarios suggest reduction overall an increase temperature, underscoring urgent need enhanced conservation efforts species.

In this study, based on the examination of type specimens, morphology male and female genitalia additional body characters, leaf-beetle genus Euliroetis is taxonomically revised. Five Chinese species are redescribed, a new synonymy proposed: E. nigrinota Gressitt et Kimoto, 1963 = simulonigrinota Yang, 1992, syn. nov., two described: testacea Feng sp. nov. tenuis Additionally, photographs all adults genitalia, line drawings males' abdomens, key to provided.

Cospeciation has been observed multiple times between parasites and their hosts. Here we compare the phylogeny of 2 different groups chewing lice (Phthiraptera), one known for being host specific (Amblycera: Myrsidea) including many generalist species (Ischnocera: Brueelia-complex, specifically Guimaraesiella Priceiella) with that songbird hosts (Passeriformes), which are participants in mixed-species feeding flocks South China. Using event- (Jane) distance-based (ParaFit) analyses found both have phylogenies more similar than by chance to those However, cospeciation host-switching events were inferred Myrsidea data set, whereas duplication losses Brueelia-complex set. Even though these louse on roughly same species, differences sorting may be linked modes dispersal. Whereas transfer direct contact, phoresy is recorded only belonging Brueelia-complex.
