First record of tribe Laenini (Coleoptera, Tenebrionidae, Lagriinae) from Shanghai, with description of a new species of the genus Laena Dejean Author Song, Xiao-Bin Author Zhou, De-Yao Author Chen, Zhi-Bing Author Lin, Ming-Zhen Author Zhu, Jian-Qing text Zootaxa 2019 2019-12-18 4712 1 90 100 journal article 24554 10.11646/zootaxa.4712.1.6 6be10c07-890a-41b6-80b9-55206dbf2fc5 1175-5326 3586882 63DD38EB-47D8-4010-912B-754C931C0C63 Key to the known Laena species from China (exclude L. confusa ) modified from that of Schawaller (2008) and Wei & Ren (2018) Since members of Laena are flightless, most of them are stenochoric, distribution is quite useful for a preliminary determination. Here we added type localities of all known Chinese species after their scientific name, respectively. Type localities of species described before 2001 were summarized by Schawaller (2001) , except that of L. ovipennis Schuster, 1926 found in Schawaller & Aston 2017 . Type localities of later species are found in their original descriptions ( Schawaller 2008 ; Schawaller & Aston 2017 ; Zhao & Ren 2012a ; Zhao & Ren 2012b ; Wei & Ren 2018 ; Makhan 2018 ). Laena confusa Löbl & Schawaller, 2008 from Anhui Province was not included in the key, because the original description in Li & Wang, 1993 is inadequate to distinguish it from other species. Its type material was claimed to be deposited in the ‘ Coleoptera laboratory of Dashiqiao Agricultural Technology Popularization Center (ĽṪLƁ ŘṃwḣḋỮOEĿaeÜUDmOiẊṁ)’, but the author was unable to locate it. 1.
