The genus Lamprocoris Stål, 1865 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Scutelleridae: Scutellerinae) is revised. Three species are recognized, treated, and keyed. Lectotypes are designated for Callidea (currently Lamprocoris) roylii Westwood, 1837 and Callidea scripta Walker, 1867. The following new subjective synonyms are proposed: Lamprocoris lateralis (Guérin-Méneville, 1838) = L. smaragdus Breddin, 1903, syn. nov.; L. roylii = Callidea distinguenda Walker, 1868, syn. nov. Lamprocoris roylii (Westwood, 1837) is recorded for the first time from Burma, Laos, Vietnam and Malaysia, L. spiniger (Dallas, 1849) from Bangladesh and Thailand. A phylogenetic analysis of the included species is provided.
