چکیده
One new species of the genus Platambus Thomson, 1859 from Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province (P. brancuccii sp. n.) and one from Chengdu, Sichuan Province (P. korgei sp. n.) are described. They belong to the Platambus semenowi-group sensu Nilsson (2000). Important species characters (median lobes and colour patterns) of the two new species are figured, and notes on their distribution are given. Altogether seven species of the semenowi-group are now known from higher mountain regions in Central Asia, northern India, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan and China. Six of them are illustrated with habitus photos and a modified key to all species of the semenowi-group is presented.

Phylogeny and historical biogeography of Agabinae diving beetles (Coleoptera) inferred from mitochondrial DNA sequences.
The Agabinae, with more than 350 species, is one of the most diverse lineages of diving beetles (Dytiscidae). Using the mitochondrial genes 16S rRNA and cytochrome oxidase I we present a phylogenetic analysis based on 107 species drawn mostly from the four main Holarctic genera. Two of these genera (Ilybius and Ilybiosoma) are consistently recovered as monophyletic with strong support, Platambu...
