Two new synonymies are proposed: Clitenella yunnana (Yang and Li. 1997) is placed in synonymy with C. punctata. and Clitenella sukarnoi Mohamedsaid, 2001 is synonymized with C. unicolor. A leetotype is designated for Galleruca fulminansFaldermann, 1835. New distributional records are given for C. punctata and C. unicolor. New biological information is provided for C. fulminans. A key to the species of Clitenella is provided.
