The family Pachynomidae is recorded from Borneo as well as Southeast Asia for the first time. Camarochiloides gen. n. and its type species C. weiweii sp. n. is described. Dorsal habitus and various morphological characters of the new species are illustrated. Subfamily placement and affinities of the new genus are briefly discussed, a key to the genera of Pachynominae is provided. Body and wing polymorphism and nymphal morphology of the new species are documented.

Re-examination of type specimens ofLibiocorisKormilev 1957,L.poecilusfrom New Guinea and other taxa assigned to this genus, the ChineseLibiocorisheissiBai, Yang & Cai, 2006 andLibiocorissinensisBai, Yang & Cai, 2006 proved to be synonyms, thusL.heissi=L.sinensissyn. n. They are, however, different fromLibiocorisKormilev, 1957 to which they were originally assigned and a new genusParalibiocorisgen. n.is proposed for them. ThereforeParalibiocorisheissicomb. n. =LibiocorisheissiBai et al., 2006 =LibiocorissinensisBai et al., 2006, syn. n. From Hainan Island, China, the following new species,P.roundangulussp. n.,P.hainanensissp. n., andP.limuensissp. n., are described and figured and a key to species is provided.
