| 總結: | The assassin bug genus <i>Argolis</i> Stål, 1861 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Stenopodainae) has a disjunct distribution in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. In the present study, the Asian species of <i>Argolis</i> are revised. Two species are recognized, redescribed, and illustrated, with the following new subjective synonyms and new combination proposed: <i>Argolis</i> Stål, 1861 = <i>Bardesanes</i> Distant, 1909, <b>syn. nov.</b> = <i>Neoklugia</i> Distant, 1919, <b>syn. nov.</b>; <i>A. farinator</i> (Reuter, 1882) = <i>N. typica</i> Distant, 1919, <b>syn. nov.</b> = <i>B. sericenotatus</i> Livingstone & Ravichandran, 1989, <b>syn. nov.</b>; <i>A. signata</i> (Distant, 1909), <b>comb. nov.</b> (transferred from <i>Bardesanes</i>) = <i>Caunus noctulus</i> Hsiao, 1977, <b>syn. nov.</b> Lectotypes for <i>C. farinator</i>, <i>B. signatus</i>, and <i>N. typica</i> are designated. A key to separate the two Asian species of <i>Argolis</i> is provided. The sexual dimorphism, systematic relationships, and distribution of <i>Argolis</i> are discussed. <i>Argolis</i> is newly recorded from Laos, Pakistan, and Vietnam.
