This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Liu, Lan-Fang, Zhao, Wei, Liu, Shan-Shan, Ren, Guo-Dong (2025): Morphological and mitogenomic characteristics of Chinese endemic species Blaps (Blaps) chinensis (Faldermann, 1835) (Coleoptera, Tenebrionidae, Blaptini).

Abstract
Blaps (Blaps) chinensis (Faldermann, 1835) is an endemic species to north-central China. We provide the first description and illustration of the egg and pupal stages of this species, supplemented by additional larval and adult morphology. Updated keys to 24 larval and 11 pupal stages of Chinese Blaps species are presented. Additionally, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence and analysis for B. (B) chinensis.
