Dolichosoma Stephens, 1830 is small genus belonging to the tribe Dasytini of the family Dasytidae (Coleoptera, Cleroidea), with two subgenera and five species hitherto known. It is widespread in the Palearctic Region of Eurasia, but has never been reported from China until now. The genus Dolichosoma Stephens, 1830 is reported from China for the first time, with discoveries of two newly-recorded species, including D. (Dolichomorphus) femorale Morawitz, 1861 and D. (Dolichosoma) lineare (Rossi, 1794) from Xinjiang Autonomous Region. They are re-described in detail and illustrated with habitus, ultimate abdominal tergites and sternites and genitalia of both sexes, as well as tarsal claws of male. In addition, a macrohabitat photograph and a distribution map of the two species occurring in China are provided.
