The concept ofP. luxiensis is refined with additional recently collected materials, while P. scabrosus is revealed to be a member of the genus Lentinus. Key words — morphology, revision, taxonomy Introduction Phylloporus Quél. is a diverse genus in the Boletaceae, the hymenophore of which is predominantly lamellate instead of poroid (Neves & Halling 2010). Thirteen species and one variety have been reported from China (Teng 1963; Zang & Zeng 1978; Li et al. 1992; Bi et al. 1993, 1994, 1997; Dai & Li 1994; Zang et al. 1996). However, some remain poorly known, especially P. luxiensis and P. scabrosus, both originally described from the southwestern region of the country (Zang & Zeng 1978). Only scanty information on microstructures was provided when the two species were first described with excellent vividly colored plates of basidiomata (Zang & Zeng 1978); although both taxa were later cited (Zang et al. 1996, Li & Song 2003), no additional morphological information was given.

Jl Abstract Sampling localities (numbers 348 - 496) of the China Water Beetle Survey (1999 - 2001) are described. Key words: China Water Beetle Survey, China, Colcoptcra, locality list. Introduction The China Water Beetle Survey currently is celebrating its 10th anniversary. The first joint expedition, which launched the CWBS co-operation project of the Natural History Museum Vienna (Section of Coleoptcrology) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Institute of Applied Ecology, Shenyang), was carried out in autumn 1993. Since then, samples were taken from almost 500 aquatic habitats, and three volumes of the WATER BEETLES OF CHINA, containing numerous taxonomic revisions and accurate distribution maps, were published (see also JÄCH&JI 1995, 1998). Today, China cannot be regarded any more as "terra incognita" in terms of aquatic coleoptera. About 200 new species, eight new genera and one new family were described since 1993. During these 10 fruitful years, faunistic and ecological surveys were carried out in the following provinces (PR), autonomous regions (AR), municipalities directly under the Central Government (M), and special administrative regions (SAR) of Mainland China: Anhui (PR), Beijing (M), Fujian (PR), Gansu (PR), Guangdong (PR), Guangxi (AR), Guizhou (PR), Hainan (PR), Hong Kong (SAR), Hunan (PR), Jiangxi (PR), Jilin (PR), Liaoning (PR), Macao (SAR), Nei Mongol (AR), Shaanxi (PR), Shandong (PR), Sichuan (PR), Yunnan (PR), Zhcjiang (PR).
