In the present paper three new species of the genus Platyope Fischer-Waldheim are described from Xinjiang, China. All type specimens are deposited in the College of Life Science and Technology, Xingjiang University, Urumqi, Xinjiang. 1. Platyope qitaiensis Wu et Huang, sp. nov. （Fig. 1） This new species is similar to P. mongolica Faldermann, but can be distinguished from the latter by： 1） the disc of pronotum with large granules; 2） Body larger, length more than 18 mm. Length of body： ♂,18.0～19.5 mm, ♀20.5 mm; width of body： ♂9.5～10.0 mm, ♀11.5mm. Holotype： ♂, Qitai County dune, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, 410 m. 06-Ⅷ-1996, by LI Xin-ping; Paratypes： 1 ♂, 1 ♀, the same as holotype. 2. Platyope korgasica Wu et Huang, sp. nov. （Fig. 2） This new species is similar to P. proetoleuca F.-W., but differs from the latter by： 1） the outer margin on protibiae with 6 slender teeth; 2） elytra with very small granules： 4 rows on each elytron; 3） the pubescence band on elytron not clear. Length of body： ♂ 10.5 mm, ♀ 11.0mm; width of body： ♂ 5.0mm, ♀5.5 mm. Holotype：♂, Korgas County, bush-dune, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, 620 m, 30-Ⅳ-1991, by HUANG Ren-xin; Paratypes： 2♀♀, the same data as holotype. 3. Platyope korlaensis Fan et Huang, sp. nov. （Fig. 3） The new species is related to P. proetoleuca F.-W., but can distinguished from the latter in the following characters： 1） elytral surface relatively flat, elytral base with 1 semicircular concavity; 2） elytra with 3 integrated incanus pubescence band, among them second band broad and obvious. Length of body： ♂, 10.0 mm, -♀ 12.0～12.5 mm; width of body： ♂ 6.0 mm,♀ 7.0～7.5 mm. Holotype： ♂, Korlae County, dune, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, 750 m, 28-Ⅴ-1991, by HUANG Ren-xin; Paratypes： 2 ♀♀, the same data as holotype.
