A new genus of the spider subfamily Coelotinae, Sinocoelotes gen. n., with nine species, is described from Yunnan and Sichuan Provinces in southern China. The species are: cangshanensis sp. n. (♀), hehuaensis (♂♀), luoshuiensis mangbangensis (♀) Yunnan; kangdingensis ludingensis mahuanggouensis muliensis yanyuanensis (♂) Sichuan. In addition, six Coelotes are transferred to genus: acicularis (Wang, Griswold & Ubick, 2009), comb. forficatus (Liu Li, 2010), guangxian (Zhang, Yang, Zhu Song, 2003), pseudoterrestris (Schenkel, 1963), pseudoyunnanensis (♂♀) thailandensis (Dankittipakul Wang, (♂♀). DNA barcodes all were documented for future use.
