Brunner von Wattenwyl (1878) erected the genus Phaula for two species Phaula laevis Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878 and Phaula rugulosa Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878 from Philippines, and then Brunner von Wattenwyl (1891) described other ten species from Sumatra. Afterwards, Bolívar (1906) substituted the name Phaulula for Phaula due to the occupation. Hebard (1922) transferred part of species into Stictophaula Hebard , and Karny (1926) transferred some species into the genus Dichophaula Karny. However, Kevan (1987) didn’t agree with Karny (1926), and considered Dichophaula as a synonym of Phaulula . In addition, Phauloidia Matsumura et Shiraki also was found to be a synonym of Phaulula ( Karny 1926a, Furukawa 1938). Now in the latest online list ( Eades et al. 2011), which is considered all these changes and newly added species, there record 27 species in Phaulula .

Here we describe one new species from southeastern China, where two known species are also distributed. Description. Bei-Bienko (1954).
