Abstract
In this paper an overview of the Laeocathaica species is provided, and the intraspecific variability of several Laeocathaica species demonstrated on multiple shells. Laeocathaica hisanoi Páll-Gergely, sp. nov. and L. minwui Páll-Gergely, sp. nov. are described based on specimens found in museum collections. Five new synonyms are recognized: L. prionotropis albocincta Möllendorff, 1899 is a new synonym of L. prionotropis Möllendorff, 1899, L. stenochone Möllendorff, 1899 is a new synonym of Laeocathaica carinifera (H. Adams, 1870). Laeocathaica distinguenda Möllendorff, 1899, L. tropidorhaphe Möllendorff, 1899, and L. dangchangensis Chen & Zhang, 2004 are moved to the synonymy of Laeocathaica amdoana Möllendorff, 1899. Furthermore, photos of paratypes of Cathaica bizonalis Chen & Zhang, 2004 are published for the first time.
