The Chinese representatives of the entimine weevil genus Geotragus are here revised, including redescriptions of the two previously known species, G. himalayanus Boheman, 1845 and G. tuberculatus Chen, 1990, and descriptions of three new species from the Hengduan Mountains, Yunnan province, China: G. brevidens sp. nov., G. declivis sp. nov. and G. rugosus sp. nov.. Diagnostic characters of the genus, a key to Chinese species of Geotragus and a checklist of the now 11 known world species are also provided.

Based on biological, morphological, distributional and genomic data, it is concluded that the malvid-associated Baris albosparsa (Faust), Malvaevora timida (Rossi) and Squamobaris aurea Pajni, Kohli & Kumar are monophyletic and distinct from Baris Germar. Squamobaris Pajni, Kohli & Kumar is synonymized with Malvaevora Zaslavskij (new synonymy). Baris albosparsa and S. aurea are transferred to Malvaevora (new combinations). Baris timida polita Reitter, B. subtilina Reitter, Baridius landgrebii Hochhuth and Baridius striatopunctatus Gistel are synonymized with M. timida and Baris striatopunctata Reitter is synonymized with Melanobaris carbonaria (Boheman) (new synonymies). Lectotypes are designated for B. timida polita and B. landgrebii. Baris striolala Aurivillius is recorded from China for the first time.
