Abstract
Background: Enicopus Stephens, 1830, is classified within the subfamily Dasytinae of the family Dasytidae (Coleoptera, Cleroidea). Currently, it comprises two subgenera and 27 known species. This genus primarily inhabits south-central Europe, with certain species extending into west Asia; however, it has not been reported in China until now.
New information: The genus Enicopus Stephens, 1830 is reported for the first time from China, following the discovery of E. (Enicopus) ater (Fabricius, 1787) in Xinjiang Autonomous Region. This species is thoroughly re-described and illustrated, including detailed depictions of the ultimate abdominal tergites and sternites, genitalia of both sexes, as well as tarsomeres 1 from the right front and hind legs of male.

期刊介绍:
Biodiversity Data Journal (BDJ) is a community peer-reviewed, open-access, comprehensive online platform, designed to accelerate publishing, dissemination and sharing of biodiversity-related data of any kind. All structural elements of the articles – text, morphological descriptions, occurrences, data tables, etc. – will be treated and stored as DATA, in accordance with the Data Publishing Policies and Guidelines of Pensoft Publishers.
The journal will publish papers in biodiversity science containing taxonomic, floristic/faunistic, morphological, genomic, phylogenetic, ecological or environmental data on any taxon of any geological age from any part of the world with no lower or upper limit to manuscript size.
