The present dissertation mainly deals with morphology, phytogeny, geographic distribution, and taxonomy of the tribe of Typhlocybini from ChinaMorphological terminology was adopted principally from Zhang (1990) and Dworakowska(1993). The preparation and dissection of male genitalia was made according to the traditional methods and the characters were illustrated under the OLYMPUS PM-IOAD microscope with a Leize drawing tube. The external characters of adults were illustrated under Nikon AFX- II steromicroscope with a Leize drawing tube.Zoogeographical analysis shows that most Chinese genera and species were found in Oriental Region, especially in Southern Yunnan Subregion (VIIB) of South China Region (VII) then in Southwest mountain Subregion ( V A) of South-west China Region (V).The analysis of phylogenetic relationships between 40 genera of Typhlocybini and one outgroup, Erythroneura, was performed using the Hennig 86 program. Totally, 47 characters were scored and 9 equally parsimonious trees were obtained. The tree 6 (length = 232, CI value = 0.65, RI value = 0.88, (0 39 (40 ((35 (38 (14 (16 (13 (15 25 ))(20 (19 22 ((17 18 )(23 (21 24 )))))))))((5 (2 (1 3 4 )))((33 (36 (31 (32 (34 37 )))))(26 (27 (29 30 ))(28 (7 12 (11 (10 (9 (6 8))))))))))) was thought to be the most suitable and acceptable one and was discussed. The results suggest that 1) Sannella Dworakowska should be moved out from Typhlocybini to Zyginellini; 2) Eupteryx complex is a molophyletic group and should be placed in Typhlocybini; 3) Farynala complex, Eupteryx complex and Linnavouriana complex were confirmed to be molophyletic respectively which is in accordance with the traditional views.Before this study, 44 genera and 6 subgenera, 502species of Typhlocybini are found over the world, of which 20 genera and 87 species are known in China. In the present paper 39 genera and 259 species are recorded, of which 12 genera and 140 species are new to science, 7 genera and 32 species are reported from China for the first time, 1 species are transferred as new combination and 4 new synonyms are recognized and revised.New genera, new species, new records, new combination and new synonyms in this paper are listed as follows:New genera: Cesticyba, Breviparamera, Fuliginis, Fusiforma, Opiciriahana, Opulentis, Pappilariahana, Paraeurhadina, Pokasha, Psaroniriahana, Sathroema, Xaniona, gen.nov.New records of genera: Almunisna Dworakowska 1968, Bolanusoides Distant 1918, Linnavuoriana Dlabola 1958, Omanesia Thapa 1983, Stumala Dworakowska 1980, Vatana Dworakowska 1994, Wagneriunia Dworakowska1968, n.rec.New species: Agnesiella (s.str.)protubera, Agnesiella (s.str.)recurva, Agnesiella (s.str.)polita, Agnesiella (D.)gaura, Agnesiella (D.)longisattata, Agnesiella (D.)tortula, Agnesiella (D.)eleganta, Agnesiella (D.)trancata, Agnesiella (D.)exigua, Agnesiella (D.)concinna, Agnesiella (D.)trifurcata, Agnesiella (D.)simpla, Agnesiella (D.)mitrata, Agnesiella (D.)gibberosa, Agnesiella (D.)mutica, Agnesiella (D.)furcata, Agnesiella (D.)apiculata, Agnesiella (D.)refracta, Agnesiella (D.)tridigitata, Agnesiella(D.)laxa.
