【 摘 要 】

Lasioglossum albescens (Smith, 1853) is recorded from Taiwan for the first time. The specimens were collected in the Kinmen Islands, several kilometers east of Xiamen, in Fujian, China. This species is distinguished from the other Taiwanese Lasioglossum (Ctenonomia) species by a combination of male clypeus black, mesoscutum with relatively sparse punctures between parapsidal and median lines in both sexes, and first metasomal tergum without distinct punctures and with distinct tessellation over entire surface in both sexes.
