Abstract
The newly defined Agrilus gratiosus species-group comprising ten species from the Oriental region is revised. A key to species is provided and complemented with illustrations of habitus, genitalia and type specimens. The following seven new species are described: Agrilus cultus sp. nov. (Laos); A. oudomxai sp. nov. (Laos); A. pergratus sp. nov. (Malaysia); A. pluridens sp. nov. (Laos, Thailand); A. pubinotus sp. nov. (Indonesia: Sumba Island); A. siberuticola sp. nov. (Indonesia: Siberut Island) and A. signipes sp. nov. (Vietnam). Agrilus makiharai Tôyama, 1987 is considered conspecific with A. bacchus Kerremans, 1913 and therefore the name makiharai syn. nov. is a junior subjective synonym of the name bacchus.
