Abstract. Four species (Rhyparida spiridonovi sp. nov. from Penang Island and Singapore, Tricliona trimaculata sp. nov. from Penang Island and Malay Peninsula, T. suratthanica sp. nov. and T. trangica sp. nov. from Thailand) are described. A key to the species of the genus Tricliona from Indochina and Malay Peninsula is given. Rhyparida faitsilongi nom. nov. is the new replacement name for Rhyparida megalops (Chen, 1935), comb. n., transferred from the genus Tricliona; Tricliona tonkinensis (Lefèvre, 1893), comb. nov. and Tricliona episternalis (Weise, 1922), comb. nov. transferred from the genera Phytorus and Rhyparida, accordingly. Lectotypes of Rhyparida episternalis Weise, 1922 and Phytorus tonkinensis Lefèvre, 1893 are designated.
