The <em>Lycocerus hanatanii</em> species group is revised, with the addition of seven taxa: <em>L. araticollis</em> (Fairmaire, 1897)<em>, L. nigripennis</em> (Pic, 1938), <em>L. griseopubens </em>(Pic, 1928),<strong> </strong><em>L. aurantiacus</em> sp. nov., <em>L. evangelium</em><strong> </strong>sp. nov., <em>L. kintaroi</em> sp. nov., and <em>L. yitingi</em> sp. nov.<strong> </strong>Supplementary descriptions of<strong> </strong>the males of <em>L. araticollis </em>and <em>L. griseopubens </em>are provided.<strong> </strong><em>Lycocerus nigripennis</em> (Pic, 1938) and <em>L. pictus</em> (Wittmer, 1983) are redescribed in detail. Each species is provided with photos or illustrations of genitalia of both sexes and abdominal ventrite VII of the female if available. Distribution maps and a key to the species of the<em> L. hanatanii</em> species group are presented. In addition, the monophyly of the <em>L. hanatanii</em> species group is supported based on a morphological phylogenetic analysis.
