Arcofaciella verrucosa Fennah, 1956 (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea: Delphacidae) is here reported from Fujian in southeastern China and Tibet in southwestern China for the first time. This represents the first record of the genus Arcofaciella Fennah, 1956 in mainland China. These new species records extend the range of Arcofaciella westward considerably, the genus having been previously known only from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Identification characteristics, dorsal habitus and diagnostic and male genitalic illustrations of Arcofaciella verrucosa Fennah are provided for the recognition of the species in China.
