ABSTRACT. 15 Oriental species of the genus Galerita Fabricius, 1801, are reviewed and keyed. New ten species and one subspecies are described from Vietnam: G. rufofemorata sp.n., G. dimorpha sp.n., G. truncata sp.n., G. konplongensis sp.n., G. variabilis sp.n., G. subglabra sp.n., G. quadraticollis sp.n., G. q. subcordata ssp.n., G. linearis sp.n., G. breviceps sp.n., and G. sublineata sp.n. All these species are apterous forest-dwellers similar to either G. feae Bates, 1892 or G. batesi Andrewes, 1923 in appearance. Galerita japonica Bates, 1873, stat.rest., and G. j. peregrina Dohrn, 1880, stat.rest., are resurrected from synonyms of G. orientalis Schmidt-Göbel, 1846.
KEY WORDS: Coleoptera, Carabidae, Galerita, new species, Vietnam, Oriental region.
