Abstract
Two new species of the genus Stenohya are described from China: Stenohya curvata sp. nov. from Yunnan Province and S. xiningensis sp. nov. from Qinghai Province, China. Detailed diagnosis, descriptions and illustrations of the two new species are presented. The genus Stenohya was erected by Beier (1967), who assigned it to the family Hyidae Chamberlin, 1930. It remained there until it was transferred to Neobisiidae Chamberlin, 1930 by Harvey (1991a). In the same article, Harvey also synonymized Levigatocreagris Curcic, 1983 with Stenohya Beier, 1967. The genus Stenohya includes ten species at present (Harvey 1991b, 2009): S. gruheri (Curcic, 1983) and S. martensi (Schawaller, 1987) from Nepal; S. hamata (Leclerc & Mahnert, 1988) and S. mahnerti Schawaller, 1994 from Thailand; S. kashmirensis (Schawaller, 1988) and S. caelata (Callaini, 1990) from India; S. vietnamensis Beier, 1967 (type species) from Vietnam; S. lindbergi (Beier, 1959) from Afghanistan; S. hems (Beier, 1943) from Central Asia; andS. chinacaver-nicola Schawaller, 1995 from China.
