Abstract Lithobius (Ezembius) laevidentata sp. n. (Lithobiomorpha: Lithobiidae), discovered from Barkol Kazak Autonomous County, Hami City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Northwest region of China, is described. Morphologically it resembles L. (E.) bilineatus Pei, Ma, Zhu & Gai, 2014. from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, but can be readily distinguished from the latter by 8–10 ocelli arranged in 3 irregular rows, Tömösváry’s organ subequal in size to the adjoining ocelli, female gonopods with 3–4 spurs, and the terminal claw of the third article of female gonopods simple. A key to Chinese Lithobius (Ezembius) species is presented.

Sageretia liuzhouensis, a new species discovered in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, is described and illustrated. This species was found growing in sparse forests or thickets on the top of towering limestone hills with sunny, dry habitats. It is very similar to S. camelliifolia in morphology but differs with pubescent inflorescence rachises and charcoal-gray branches, as well as smaller leaves and shorter petioles. The delimitation of this new species is also supported by phylogenetic analyses based on five DNA loci (ITS, ETS, trnL-trnF, psbA-trnH and petA-psbJ). S. camelliifolia is within a clade separated from the new species and S. thea is more closely related to S. subcaudata and S. rugosa than the new species.

A new species of Asian warty newt, Paramesotriton ermizhaoi, is described from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China. This species is easily distinguished from other congeners by external morphology and osteology. Phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial data place P. ermizhaoi as a possible sister taxon to P. hongkongensis and P. chinensis. The number of trunk vertebrae varies from 12 to 13 in the new species. The relationship between P. ermizhaoi and a potentially new Pachytriton species (Pachytriton C), and the Guangxi population of P. chinensis is briefly discussed.

A new species of Nemouridae of the genus Indonemoura Baumann 1975, I. furcoloba Li & Yang, sp. nov., is described from both sexes from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of southern China. The relationships with related species are discussed. Additionally, a new subspecies is proposed for a population of I. nigrihamita Li & Yang, 2008 from northern Sichuan Province of southwestern China.

A new species of the Neoperla diehli subgroup of the montivaga group, N. curvilobata sp. nov., is described from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of southern China. The first country records for N. diehli Sivec, 1985 and N. hubleyi Stark & Sivec, 2008 from China are given. Neoperla wui Yang & Yang, 1990 is reported again from the type locality. Neoperla mesostyla Li & Wang, 2013 (in Wang et al. 2013b) is placed as a synonym of N. wui. Illustrations and color images are provided for each species and the new species is compared with related congeners of the N. diehli subgroup. A provisional key to the known species of the N. diehli subgroup is also presented.

Chloranthus flavus sp. nov., a new species from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in China, is described based on living organisms and type specimens. The new species is morphologically similar to Chloranthus nervosus Coll. et Hemsl. due to their similar flower and leaf characters. However, they can be easily distinguished by their habits, stems and color of stamen connectives. The main morphological features of the new species are described, and color photographs are provided.

The genus Aspidistra Ker-Gawler (1822: 628) (Asparagaceae) has its main centre of diversity in China and Vietnam. In recent years, many new species were discovered and described from that region, increasing the total number of species to over 120. In China, Aspidistra includes over 80 species and is mainly distributed in the southwest part of the country, especially in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (60 species) (Liang & Tamura 2000, Li 2004, Tillich 2005, 2008, Liu et al. 2011, Tillich et al. 2013, He et al. 2013, Lin et al. 2013a–b, 2014, Meng et al. 2014). When investigating medicinal plants in Qingshitan Natural Reserve, Lantian town, Lingchuan County, northeastern Guangxi in 2013, we collected an unusual Aspidistra specimen with linear leaves and urceolar perigone. In March 2014, we returned to the place for further observations of the species, the plant flowered regularly. After consulting herbarium specimens and relevant literature on Aspidistra, it became apparent that we had a new species at hand.

A new species of the Oriental Perlidae genus Neoperlops Banks, 1939, Neoperlops triangulatus sp. nov. is described from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of southern China. Neoperlops gressitti Banks, 1939 is redescribed, and recorded from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region for the first time. Neoperlops huanghuye (Chen, 2020) comb. n., recently described from Fujian Province from southeastern China, is transferred from Phanoperla Banks, 1938. The six species of the genus are classified in two groups of morphologically similar species.
