PROC. ENTOMOL. SOC. WASH. 97(2), 1995, pp. 458^73 A LIST OF THE MIRIDAE (HETEROPTERA) RECORDED FROM CHINA SINCE J. C. M. CARVALHO'S "WORLD CATALOGUE" Le-Yi Zheng Department of Biology, Nankai University, Tianjin 300071, P.R. China. Abstract.— This paper provides a list of the Miridae recorded from China since the publication of the J. C. M. Carvalho (1952-1960) "World Catalogue of Miridae." A total of 423 species are listed, bringing the total number of Miridae known from China to 554 species. Bibliographical sources and provincial (or territorial) distribution data are given for each species. Kev Words: Miridae, list, China This paper is dedicated to Dr. J. C. M. Carvalho in honor of his contribution to the systematics of Miridae, especially for his monumental "World Catalogue of Miri-dae," which tremendously facilitated the studies of this large family all over the world and in China as well. Records of Chinese mirids since the pub-lication of the "World Catalogue" are doc-umented herein, including a few unpub-lished records by the author. A total of 423 species are listed, bringing the total number of Miridae known from China to 554 spe-cies. Chinese records already found in Dr. Carvalho's World Catalogue are marked with an asterisk. Original references are in-cluded for genera having the type species from China and type localities are given for species described from China. Distribution data (not including those given in the lit-erature), listed by province or region are given in brackets at the end of each species. Only literature since the Carvalho Catalog is cited in the bibliography. The subfamilial system used in this paper follows that of Henry and Wheeler (1988). I am greatly indebted to Thomas J. Henry of (Systematic Entomology Lab., USDA, Washington, D.C.) for his encouragement, comments, English corrections, and kind assistance in publishing this paper.
