The taxonomy of the genus Clytra Laicharting, 1781 occurring in China is studied. Two new species are described: Clytra (Clytraria) tanae sp. nov. from Qinghai and Yunnan, and Clytra (Clytraria) truncatula sp. nov. from Xinjiang. The Chinese fauna of the genus is thus increased to 13 species/subspecies in total. Keys to the Chinese genera of Clytrini and to Chinese species of Clytra are provided in addition to color plates and line drawings of habitus, maxilla, labium, male genitalia and spermatheca, which facilitates species identification; geographic distributions of 12 species/subspecies are mapped. The type specimens are deposited in Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China.

All types of Longchuanacris Zheng et Fu, 1989 are examined. Longchuanacris guangxiensis Zheng et Ren, 2007 is synonymized with Caryanda neoelegans Otte, D. 1995, and Longchuanacris bilobata Mao, Ren et Ou, 2007 is synonymized with L. macrofurcula Zheng et Fu, 1989; seventy three topotypes are designated for L. macrofurcula. Longchuanacris lobata Niu et Ou, sp. nov. and L. microfurcula Niu et Zheng, sp. nov. are described as new species. Six Longchuanacris species are keyed and their distributions are stated. These species are distributed in southwestern Yunnan, China. Type specimens are deposited in the Faculty of Conservation Biology, Southwest Forestry University (SWFU), Yunnan Province, China and in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China (IZCAS).
