Summary Genus Parapholidoptera is revised and three species, P. yoruka sp.n., P. bolkarensis sp.n. and P. salmani sp.n., are described. Parapholidoptera delineata Stolyarov is placed in synonymy with P. ziganensis Karabağ. Parapholidoptera bodenheimeri Karabağ and P. distincta bodenheimeri Karabağ are placed in synonymy with P. distincta (Uvarov). Parapholidoptera flexuosa Karabağ, previously a subspecies of P. castaneoviridis (Brunner von Wattenwyl), is recognized as a separate species. A key to world species is provided. Cladistic analysis revealed the monophyly of the genus with two major clades. A short account of distribution is presented.
