Two species of Ceratophysella Börner, 1932 were studied. Ceratophysella baichengensis sp.nov is described, it is closely related to C. denticulata Bagnall, 1941, but differs from the latter by the apical bulb on Ant. IV, and proportion anal spines on the inner edge of the claw. Ceratophysella succinea (Gisin 1949), is newly recorded from China and is redescribed and illustrated together with C. cf. succinea. A key to the Chinese Ceratophysella is provided.
