Paramacronychia flavipalpis: Verves (1986: 117, catalog); Fan & Pape (1996: 244, checklist); Pape (1996: 166, catalog). [Misidentified, see Remarks.]
Chinese specimens examined. None.
Distribution. CHINA: Xinjiang (Tien-Shan); Palaearctic Region.
Remarks. The first record of the genus Paramacronychia from China was made by Rohdendorf & Verves (1978), who recorded Paramacronychia flavipalpis (Girschner) from “Tien-Shan”. Verves (1986) listed this species from western Xinjiang (as “West Kashgaria”), and the record was accepted by Fan & Pape (1996) without mentioning if any material was examined. Zhang, Whitmore & Pape (unpublished) have examined several specimens of Paramacronychia from Kazakhstan and Mongolia, and these all belong to an undescribed species; we consider this as evidence that the record of P. flavipalpis from China is a misidentification of this undescribed species, whereas Paramacronychia flavipalpis appears to be endemic to Europe.
