(Minettiella) plurifurcata sp. n., M. (Minettiella) spinosa sp. n. and M. (Minettiella) tianmushanensis sp. n. Minettiella elbergi Shatalkin, 1996 and Minettia japonica Sasakawa, 1995 are treated as junior synonyms of M. (Minettiella) dolabriforma (Sasakawa & Kozánek, 1995). A key to five subgenera of Minettia and eleven species of Minettia (Minettiella) is presented.
