03ABD609A02EFFDCFF5B92B8B1FCF90F.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The three genera, Cyanotiphia Cameron, 1907, Tiphia Fabricius, 1775, and Paratiphia Sichel, 1864 are more or less similar in morphology. Cyanotiphia Cameron differs from Tiphia Fabricius in these characters: dorsal and lateral pronotum with dense punctures; disc of propodeum laterally with at least one complete, longitudinal carina running from anterior to posterior margin of this area and posteriorly connected with transverse carina (Figs 4, 12); posterior surface of propodeum with radial wrinkles (Figs 4, 12); mid tibia with two spurs apically; and anterior T 1 separated by distinct transverse carina followed by short longitudinal wrinkles (Figs 1, 9). Cyanotiphia Cameron differs from Paratiphia Sichel by the following: lateral pronotum in the male without a prominent, forward directed process; ventral aspect of hind femur without a carina in female (Saini et al. 2022); tegula distinctly large, slightly shorter than mesonotum (Figs 1, 9); propodeum posteriorly with only one transverse carina (Figs 4, 12); lateral T 1 without an abruptly depressed, finely setiferous plaque (Allen 1968); abdominal segments with posterior margin impunctate (Figs 1, 9).	en	Feng, Zi-Yan, Chen, Bin, Li, Ting-Jing (2025): A taxonomic review of the newly recorded genus Cyanotiphia Cameron, 1907 (Hymenoptera, Tiphiidae, Tiphiinae) from China, with a key to all known species.

03ABD609A02CFFD8FF5B9618B117FEE8.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Tsuneki (1986) described Tiphia (Punctotiphia) fenchihuensis from Taiwan, China (one female and 17 males). After examining our specimen and referring to the related literature, T. (P.) fenchihuensis matches the diagnostic features of Cyanotiphia (Cameron 1907; Tsuneki 1986; Saini et al. 2022). So, T. (P.) fenchihuensis Tsuneki, 1986 should be transferred to the Cyanotiphia. Tsuneki’s original description of the species, based on the Taiwanese specimens, was detailed and the Guangdong specimen examined in our study is almost identical. In our paper, just some complementary and variations in male are offered as follows: W: OW: L: IOD = 6.5: 3: 3.8: 3.6; OOD: POD: Od = 9: 7.5: 6.5; AOD: WAS: IAD: CL = 9.5: 15: 3.5: 22; propodeal areola of propodeum noticeably long and subtrapezoidal, APWL = 1.4: 1: 1.9, and its posterior part medially lower than the surrounding area (Fig. 12); disc of propodeum with several longitudinal or bifurcate wrinkles (Fig. 12), lateral surface of propodeum dorsally with dense long curving wrinkles extending from anterodorsal to posteroventral area, ventrally impunctate (Fig. 13); S 1 with longitudinal wrinkles, without deep punctures along lateral carina (Fig. 14); S 3 – S 6 with sparse and shallow punctures, and denser on posterior margins (Fig. 15); and T 7 strongly and coarsely puncto-reticulate, interspaces between punctures distinctly with long carinae (Fig. 16).	en	Feng, Zi-Yan, Chen, Bin, Li, Ting-Jing (2025): A taxonomic review of the newly recorded genus Cyanotiphia Cameron, 1907 (Hymenoptera, Tiphiidae, Tiphiinae) from China, with a key to all known species.
