Bradysia odoriphaga Yang et Zhang, 1985 syn. nov. is proposed as new synonym of Bradysia cellarum Frey 1948, and Lycoriella pleuroti Yang et Zhang, 1987 syn. nov. as new synonym of Lycoriella ingenua (Dufour, 1839). These results were confirmed by cytochrome oxidase I (COI) DNA barcodes, neighbor-joining (NJ) trees, and a revision of their characters. Illustrations of the morphological characteristics of these two species are provided. Former published records of Bradysia difformis Frey 1948 from China accord with Bradysia impatiens (Johannsen, 1912), as also shown by COI NJ tree in this paper.
