Abstract
The species of the genus Cavelerius Distant, 1903 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Lygaeoidea: Blissidae) are reviewed based on re-examination of the type images. A total of thirteen
species are recognized in this genus, including three new species: Cavelerius nigrivena sp.
nov. from Thailand and Laos; Cavelerius parvimaculatus sp. nov. from Thailand, and Cavelerius yunnanensis sp. nov. from China: Yunnan. Cavelerius tinctus (Distant, 1903) is newly recorded from China, and Cavelerius antennatus Slater & Miyamoto, 1963 is newly recorded from India: Meghalaya. A key to all known species of Cavelerius is provided.
