An Updated Checklist of the Phytophagous Ladybird Beetles (Coccinellinae: Epilachnini) of China

Simple Summary

The tribe Epilachnini currently comprising 1126 identified species in 28 genera is distributed worldwide. It is a highly diverse group of herbivorous ladybird beetles, predominantly found in the Afrotropical, Neotropical, and Oriental regions. This study provides a comprehensive checklist of 176 species across 10 genera, along with detailed data on their regional distribution and host plant associations in China. A significant ecological knowledge gap is revealed, as host plant associations are documented for only 72 species (41%) of the Chinese Epilachnini, which are primarily associated with the families Solanaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Urticaceae, Fabaceae, Asteraceae, Poaceae, Lamiaceae, Rubiaceae, Ranunculaceae, and Brassicaceae. The host plants of the remaining 59% of ladybird beetle species in this tribe remain unknown.

Abstract

A comprehensive annotated checklist of the members of the phytophagous ladybird beetle tribe Epilachnini (Coccinellinae) in China is compiled based on existing published sources and incorporates the latest taxonomic and nomenclatural updates. The checklist documents 176 extant species across 10 genera and provides analyses of regional species richness, distribution, and host plant associations. Regarding regional species richness, Yunnan Province is home to the highest number of species (76), followed by Taiwan (50), Sichuan (48), Guizhou (48), Guangxi (43), Tibet (43), Guangdong (25), Hainan (17), Hubei (17), Hunan (13), Shaanxi (13), Fujian (12), Henan (10), Jiangsu (10), Anhui (7), Shandong (7), Zhejiang (7), Jiangxi (5), Hong Kong (5), Gansu (5), Beijing (4), Hebei (4), Liaoning (3), Shanxi (2), and Chongqing, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Ningxia, and Xinjiang (each with one species). Among the recognized genera, Epilachna Chevrolat, 1837, is currently the most species-rich genera, with 59 species, followed by Afissa Dieke, 1947 (34), Uniparodentata Wang & Cao, 1993 (28), Henosepilachna Li, 1961 (29), Afidentula Kapur, 1958 (10), Diekeana Tomaszewska & Szawaryn, 2015 (9), and Epiverta Dieke, 1947 (4). Additionally, Afidenta Dieke, 1947, Cynegetis Chevrolat, 1837, and Subcoccinella Agassiz & Erichson, 1845 are each represented by a single species. Host plant data are currently available for only 72 species (approximately 41% of the species recorded in China), which are associated with 177 plant species across 34 families. The most frequently recorded host plant families are Solanaceae (43 species), Cucurbitaceae (32), Urticaceae (15), Fabaceae (14), Asteraceae (14), and Poaceae (10), whereas each of the remaining 28 families comprises fewer than 10 host species. For 104 species (59% of the Chinese members of the tribe), host plant associations remain unknown, highlighting a substantial gap in our understanding of their feeding habits.

1. Introduction

The family Coccinellidae (Coleoptera), commonly known as ladybird beetles, ladybugs or lady beetles, is a charismatic and globally distributed group of insects, comprising approximately 6900 described species belonging to 360 genera in 25 tribes [1,2,3,4]. Currently, the family is divided into three subfamilies [3]: Coccinellinae (336 genera, more than 6500 species), Microweiseinae (23 genera, more than 150 species) and Monocoryninae (1 genus, 10 species) [4,5,6,7]. Ladybird species are predominantly recognized for their predatory nature, with over half of the family preying on various insect groups, particularly scale insects (36%) and aphids (20%), thereby serving as vital biological control agents [8]. However, beyond this familiar predatory stereotype, Coccinellidae exhibits a significant diversity of feeding habits. Approximately 20% of ladybird species are phytophagous. This group includes members of the tribe Epilachnini, which consists of around 1126 formally described extant species classified into 27 recognized genera. Furthermore, the genus Bulaea Mulsant, 1850 (comprising four species), which belongs to the tribe Coccinellini, is also phytophagous [1,2,9,10,11]. A smaller proportion, approximately 2%, are mycophagous, while others feed on pollen and small arthropods [1,12].

Epilachnini represents the largest phytophagous group of herbivorous beetles within the family Coccinellidae. Notably, several species within this tribe are of major agricultural importance. For example, Epilachna varivestis Mulsant, 1837 (commonly referred to as the Mexican bean beetle), is widespread in the Nearctic and Neotropical regions [1,13,14], while Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata (Fabricius, 1775) (known as the 28-spotted ladybird or the Hadda beetle) is prevalent in the Oriental, Palaearctic, and Australian regions [1,15,16,17]. Additional economically significant pests include Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata (Motschulsky, 1857) (also called the 28-spotted potato ladybird beetle), H. implicata (Mulsant, 1850), and Chnootriba elaterii (Rossi, 1794) (known as 12-spotted melon beetle) [1,16,18,19,20]. These species are known to infest a wide range of cultivated crops, including cucumber, ivy gourd, tomato, eggplant, melon, potato, pumpkin, snake gourd, tobacco, and ramie [18,20,21,22]. Despite the agricultural importance of several well-documented pest species, host plant associations remain poorly documented for the tribe. Currently, host plant associations are documented for only 134 species (approximately 12% of Epilachnini) [16,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27], representing 15 genera (55.5% of the tribe). Consequently, host-plant associations remain unknown for 986 species, representing approximately 88% of the tribe. This substantial gap in knowledge highlights a significant deficiency in our understanding of feeding habits and host plant interactions within Epilachnini. Such information is fundamental to understanding the evolutionary history of phytophagous lineages, including patterns of host shifts and host-associated diversification, and is also important for predicting pest host ranges and developing effective management strategies [22].

In earlier taxonomic classifications, Epilachnini was treated as a distinct subfamily, Epilachninae, and was further divided into four tribes: Epilachnini Mulsant, 1846; Cynegetini Thomson, 1866; Epivertini Pang & Mao, 1979; and Eremochilini Gordon & Vandenberg, 1987 [1,13,28,29,30]. The designation Epilachnini was originally proposed by Costa in 1849 to include three species: Epilachna chrysomelina (Fabricius, 1775) (now referred to as Chnootriba elaterii (Rossi, 1794), Cynegetis globosa (=Subcoccinella vigintiquatuorpunctata), and Epilachna argus (Fourcroy, 1785) (now known as Henosepilachna argus (Geoffroy in Fourcroy, 1785)) [13]. Despite the earlier classification, recent taxonomic studies, which have examined larval and adult morphological characteristics, food preferences, and phylogenetic relationships, have consistently identified Epilachnini as a monophyletic clade within Coccinellinae [2,12,31,32,33,34].

The tribe Epilachnini currently comprises 27 recognized genera, of which two, Afidenta and Macrolasia, are monotypic, and the number of species in 23 genera ranges between two and seventy. Among these, Epilachna (with around 484 species) and Henosepilachna (233 species) are considered the most species-rich genera. However, the true diversity and taxonomic limits of Epilachna remain controversial. Once considered a cosmopolitan genus, Epilachna is now believed to be restricted to the New World, with many Asian species transferred or reassigned to other genera such as Afissa, Diekeana, and Uniparodentata [2,20,35,36]. Epilachna was the first described genus within phytophagous ladybird beetles and historically served as a “catch-all” genus for many newly described species. However, subsequent taxonomic revisions and a better understanding of morphological and phylogenetic relationships have led to establishment of several new genera within the tribe, and many species formerly assigned to Epilachna have been transferred to other genera. Despite these advances, a significant number of species originally described under Epilachna remain taxonomically unresolved. Although there has been considerable progress in clarifying generic boundaries and phylogenetic relationships within Epilachnini, many species originally described in Epilachna still require further taxonomic revision.

The Chinese fauna of Epilachnini currently comprises 10 genera and approximately 176 species and represents about 15% of the known global diversity of the tribe. The earliest record of Epilachnini from the territory of present-day China dates back to Mulsant [37], who described Epilachna maculivestis from Tibet. Thereafter, numerous species have been described from China over the past 170 years by many authors, including Crotch [38], Weise [39], Gorham [40], Frivaldszky [41], Sicard [42], Weise [43,44], Mader [45,46], Zimmermann [47], Liu [48], Li & Cook [21], Kapur [49], Bielawski [50], Miyatake [51], Pang & Mao [52,53], Hoàng [54], Cao & Xiao [55], Cao & Wang [56], Xiao & Li [57], Pang [58], Zeng & Yang [59,60], Hu & Zhang [61], Yu & Wang [62], Yu [63], Zeng [64,65], Peng et al. [66], Pang & Zeng [67], Yu [68], Pang et al. [69], Yi et al. [70], Wang et al. [71], Tomaszewska et al. [72], L. Wang et al. [73], Jin et al. [74], and Ye et al. [75]. A list of 106 Epilachna species recorded in China was relatively recently compiled by Pang et al. [69]. Since then, however, many taxonomic changes have been made and many new species described.

Since the publication of the world catalog of Epilachnini by Jadwiszczak & Węgrzynowicz [1], the taxonomy of this tribe has undergone a significant revision, with several new genera established and numerous nomenclatural changes proposed. The present study aims to provide an updated checklist of the Chinese Epilachnini, summarizing current taxonomic knowledge and providing a foundation for future systematic and biodiversity studies of the tribe in the region.

2. Materials and Methods

The checklist present below includes the valid generic and species names of Epilachnini found in China, their synonyms, as well as their regional and global distributions, and associated host plant data published up to 1 April 2026. All the data presented here has also been entered into the online database LadybirdBase (http://www.ladybirdbase.com/home/, accessed on 1 January 2026), ensuring wide accessibility and integration with global ladybird taxonomic resources.

2.1. Taxonomic Data Sources

Valid species names and their synonyms were derived from the following publications: Korschefsky [76], Fürsch [77,78,79,80], Kapur [49,81,82,83,84,85,86], Li & Cook [21], Gordon [13], Hoàng [54,87,88], Pang & Mao [53], Miyatake [51,89], Gordon & Vandenberg [30], Wang & Cao [90,91,92], Katakura et al. [23], Jadwiszczak & Węgrzynowicz [1], Poorani [93], Kovář [94], Ślipiński [31], Ren et al. [9], Szawaryn [95,96], Canepari [15], Pang et al. [69], Tomaszewska & Szawaryn [11], Wang et al. [71,73], Szawaryn et al. [34], Tomaszewska & Szawaryn [2], Tomaszewska et al. [72], González [97], González et al. [98], Bajracharya & Budha [99], Iqbal et al. [20], Duarte-de-Mélo et al. [17], Wang et al. [73], Jin et al. [74], and Ye et al. [75].

2.2. Classification and Taxonomic Arrangements

The taxonomic classification adopted herein is based on the recent classification systems proposed by Szawaryn et al. [34] and Tomaszewska & Szawaryn [2]. The classification has been updated to incorporate all subsequent taxonomic changes published between 2016 and 2025, including re-validation of previously synonymized taxa, descriptions of new taxa, and newly proposed synonyms and combinations (see references above). These updates were further verified using online biodiversity platforms and specialized databases, including the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF: https://doi.org/10.15468/39omei, accessed on 1 January 2026) and Catalog of Life (https://doi.org/10.48580/dgwnl, accessed on 1 March 2026), LadybirdBase [4], and Coccinellidae South America [100]. All known genera and species are listed alphabetically in the checklist.

2.3. Geographical Distribution

The geographical distribution data are presented as follows: biogeographical region, followed by China (with provinces in parentheses), and other countries listed alphabetically within each region. Here we follow the traditional zoogeographical classification of China into the Palaearctic and Oriental regions. The Palaearctic region includes northern and western China, whereas the Oriental region comprises southern and eastern China. The boundary between these two regions in eastern China is generally considered to follow the Qinling Mountains–Huaihe River line. In western China, however, this boundary is less distinct and forms a broad transitional belt encompassing southern Gansu, northwestern Sichuan, northwestern Yunnan, and southeastern Tibet. Therefore, provinces located within this transitional zone, such as parts of Sichuan, Yunnan, and Tibet, should be assigned with caution, as species in these regions may show affinities with both regions. The transition zone of these two regions have been discussed for various groups of animals [101,102,103,104]. Herein we currently assign Sichuan and Yunnan in the Oriental region, and Tibet in the Palaearctic region.

The map of China shown in Figure 1 was obtained from the Ministry of Natural Resources Standard Map Service website GS (2019) 1680, accessed on 20 January 2026 (http://bzdt.ch.mnr.gov.cn/). Detailed host plant records for individual species are provided in the annotated checklist.

2.4. Host Plant Data

Host plant associations are currently available for only 72 species, representing nine of the 10 genera in China (Figure 2). These species are associated with 177 plant species belonging to 34 families. Host plant data were compiled from an extensive review of historical and contemporary literature, including Pang & Mao [53], Cao [105], Singh & Phaloura [106], Wang & Cao [90], Zeng & Yang [59,60], Shirai & Katakura [107], Katakura et al. [23], Yu & Lau [108], Zhang & Ou [109], Naz et al. [110], Yi et al. [70], Katoh et al. [22], Casari & Teixeira [111], Ahmed et al. [112], Ohta-Matsubayashi et al. [24], Sajan et al. [25], Dorji et al. [26], Nakano [16], Das et al. [35], Maulana et al. [113], Saha et al. [27], and Iqbal et al. [20]. Host plant associations remain unknown for 104 species, representing approximately 59% of the members of the tribe Epilachnini recorded in China. This substantial lack of host plant information highlights a significant gap in our understanding of feeding habits and host plant interactions within this tribe. Host plant associations are essential for our understanding the evolutionary history of phytophagous lineages, including patterns of host shifts and host-associated diversification. Such data are also critical for predicting pest host ranges and developing effective management strategies.

• Genus Afidentula Kapur, 1958

Afidentula Kapur, 1958 [82]: 324. Type species: Epilachna manderstjernae Mulsant, 1853 [37]: 256. Original designation. – Pang & Mao [53]: 120; Chakraborty & Biswas [117]: 150; Jadwiszczak & Węgrzynowicz [1]: 22; Poorani [93]: 38; Kovár [94]: 625; Ren et al.

Remarks. Originally, Afidentula comprised only nine species from Asia [11]. Szawaryn et al. [34] has found that four studied African species of Afidenta formed a monophyletic group with Afidentula and that probably all African species formerly classified in Afidenta may belong to Afidentula. Some other species of former Epilachna and Henosepilachna may also belong to this genus, such as E. blaesa and H. acervata. This genus has more than 47 valid species. The Chinese fauna comprises ten species, four of which are endemic. Three of these endemic species are known only from Yunnan, and one species from Guizhou and Sichuan. Provisional regional distribution records are as follows: Yunnan (7), Guangdong (4), Guangxi (4), Sichuan (4), Guizhou (2), Hong Kong (1), and Tibet (1); the exact locality of one species is unknown. Host plants are known to comprise five species, revealing associations with thirteen plant species under five families. Poaceae is the most frequent host family (8 species), followed by Lamiaceae (2), while Fabaceae, Verbenaceae, and Cucurbitaceae are each represented by a single species.

Remarks. The genus Epilachna currently includes 59 species in China, of which 45 are endemic. Among these endemic species, 28 species are restricted to a single region: Yunnan (8), Taiwan (7), Sichuan (6), Guizhou (2), Tibet (2), and 1 species each in Hainan, Henan, Hubei, and Guangxi. The remaining 17 endemic species range across two to six regions. Overall, the provisional distribution records of Epilachna in China are as follows: Sichuan (21), Taiwan (14), Guizhou (13), Guangxi (10), Hubei (7), Tibet (7), Guangdong (6), Hainan (4), Hunan (3), Jiangsu (3), Fujian (2), Shaanxi (2), Shandong (2), and a single species each from Gansu, Henan, and Zhejiang. Host plant records are available for 13 species, revealing associations with 17 plant species from eight families. Urticaceae is the most frequently recorded host family (7 species), followed by Rubiaceae (4) and Asteraceae (3), while Hydrangeaceae, Lamiaceae, and Vitaceae are each represented by a single species. No confirmed host plant records exist for Cucurbitaceae and Poaceae.

Note. A total of 14 species, including 11 originally described in Afissa and 3 later transferred to Afissa in subsequent records, are currently placed in Epilachna (sensu Jadwiszczak & Węgrzynowicz [1]). The taxonomic placement of these species should be carefully reassessed in future studies to ensure accurate classification.
