Abstract
Knowledge of the family Assamiidae in the Eastern Himalayas is primarily concentrated from Nepal, while Bhutan, Xizang, and northeastern India remain much less studied. Herein, a new genus, Linzhiassamiagen. nov., is described from Xizang, China, along with two new species, Linzhiassamiamedogensissp. nov. and Linzhiassamiazayuensissp. nov. These represents the first records of the family Assamiidae from Xizang. A comparative analysis with other continental Asian Assamiidae is undertaken, with a focus on genital morphology. Potential closest relatives are identified, including the genus Dhaulagirius Martens, 1977 from Nepal.
