        <label>Abstract</label>
        <p><italic>Lulilan obscurus</italic> gen. nov. spec. nov., <italic>Lulilan spinifer</italic> spec. nov. and <italic>Phine succinea</italic> gen. nov. spec. nov. are described as new. <italic>Lulilan obscurus</italic> and <italic>L. spinifer</italic> are the closest relatives of <italic>L. furcatus</italic> (Hardwicke, 1823). The elongated abdominal segments 7–8 and long dististyli in the males are synapomorphies of the three species, while a processus (sternal spur) at the male’s 2nd abdominal sternum is indicative of a sistergroup relationship between <italic>obscurus </italic>and <italic>spinifer</italic>. - The wings of <italic>Phine succinea</italic> are devoid of any markings. Abdominal segments 7 and 8 are distally enlarged in the male. Medigynium (female) with a medium-sized apodeme. Apodeme without laterally extending processes serving as attachment devices for musculature in other species.</p>
