Abstract
Ten alberti-group species of the genus Metaphycus Mercet from China are reviewed. Six species, M. dorsalis sp. n., M. chinensis sp. n., M. wui sp. n., M. stylatus sp. n., M. fusiscapus sp. n., and M. fusiformis sp. n. are described as new to science. Four known species from China are redescribed. A key to the females of the Chinese species is given and photomicrographs are provided to illustrate morphological characters of these species. All specimens, unless otherwise specified, are deposited in the National Zoological Museum of China, Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing.
