This study is focused on the Chinese fauna of the leaf beetle genus Chlamisus Rafinesque, 1815 (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) and three new species are described, namely C. corollinotatus sp. nov. from Guangxi, and C. lycocephalus sp. nov. and C. varipennatus sp. nov. from Yunnan. The number of the Chinese Chlamisus is thus increased to 66. Twenty-five species are redescribed with the emphasis mainly on the genital morphological characters that are observed and reported for the first time for most species of the genus from China. Color plates and line drawings of general habitus and other detailed structures are also provided. Chinese fauna of the genus is keyed to species. Type specimens of the new species and other materials included in this study are deposited in the Institute of Zoology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing.
本研究聚焦于叶甲属Chlamisus Rafinesque，1815（鞘翅目：叶甲科）的中国区系，并描述了3个新物种，即来自广西的花冠叶甲Chlamisus corollinotatus sp. nov.，以及来自云南的球头叶甲Chlamisus lycocephalus sp. nov.和异翅叶甲Chlamisus varipennatus sp. nov.。中国叶甲属物种数量因此增至66种。重新描述了25个物种，主要着重于生殖器形态特征，其中多数物种的此类特征在中国为首次观察和报道。还提供了整体形态及其他详细结构的彩色图版和线条图。编制了该属中国区系的分种检索表。新物种的模式标本及本研究包含的其他材料保存于北京的中国科学院动物研究所。
