Two new species of the genus Laena Dejean, 1821 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae: Lagriinae) are described from Hong Kong: Laena hongkongica sp. n. and Laena walkeri sp. n. These constitute the first record of the genus from Hong Kong, as a species previously described from nearby area Laena ovipennis Schuster, 1926, in fact originated from Zhejiang province nearby Shanghai. Both species from Hong Kong possess a wide variation in body length, which is quite unusual for this genus.
描述了采自香港的光萤属（Laena Dejean，1821）（鞘翅目：拟步甲科：光萤亚科）的两个新物种：香港光萤（Laena hongkongica sp. n.）和沃氏光萤（Laena walkeri sp. n.）。这是该属在香港的首次记录，因为之前报道的一种来自附近地区的光萤，即1926年的Laena ovipennis Schuster，实际上来自上海附近的浙江省。来自香港的这两个物种在体长上都有很大的变异性，这在该属中是相当不寻常的。
