Abstract
Validifemur gen. n. is described with two new species, V. pedodontus sp. n. and V. zapparolii sp. n., from the Shanxi Province of North China. These new taxa have some exceptional morphological characters, especially the strong protuberance on the last pair of legs in male. Both species are described based on both male and female specimens.
