Introduction

Materials and methods

The majority of the materials of this study come from the first author who examined most of the important collections of Bostrichidae specimens in China during the period from 2021 to 2023. Some other materials were also donations from the author's friend. Most of the basis about the new record in this study were preserved specimens in institutions. Only the new record of Coccographis nigrorubra Lesne, 1901 in Anhui and Zhejiang Province were photos from friends. The first author was responsible for all identified and determined materials of the new record.

Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 were taken with a Leica 1DVM6A. Fig. 3 was taken with Canon EOS E6 Mark II & EOS R7 and RF100-400mm f5.6-8 IS USM lens by Wen-Qi Zhu and Jia-Min Chen. Fig. 4 was taken by Jian-Bo Li. Both figures were combined through Helicon Focus 8.2.5 software and optimised with Adobe Photoshop CC 2020.
