ABSTRACT. Falsomesosella taibaishana Lazarev, sp.n., similar to the Japanese F. gracilior (Bates, 1884) and the Taiwanese F. horishana Gressitt, 1938, is described from Taibaishan National Park (China, Shaanxi province). It differs from both related species by its pale transverse elytral band curved backwards and dark antennae with joints which are never reddish basally. The distinguishing characters of the new species are discussed.
