We propose the genus Flospes gen. nov. for two new species, Flospes guangxiensis sp. nov. and Flospes viridipennis sp. nov., obtained from Guangxi and Hainan provinces, China, respectively, based on male genitalia traits. Three other species with similar genitalia are placed in the new genus: Flospes fujianensis (Wang et al., 1999), comb. nov., Flospes hainanensis (He et al., 2010), comb. nov., and Flospes denticulatus (Liu & Shi, 2011), comb. nov. The new species are described, illustrated, and their ranges are given.
