The East Palaearctic genus Atrachea Warren, 1911 are revised. Two generic names Trichosternum Draudt, 1950, syn. n. and Zutragum Nye, 1975(replacement name for Trichosternum), syn. n. are synonymized with Atrachea. Three new combinations and new synonymies for two specific names are proposed: Atrachea prasinatra(Draudt, 1950), comb. n., Atrachea leucochlora(Boursin, 1970), comb. n., Atrachea munda(Leech, 1900) = Valeriodes muscosula Draudt, 1950, syn. n.; A. viridinigra(Hreblay et Ronkay, 1997), comb. n.; Atrachea ochrotica(Hampso, 1910) = Trichosternum likianga Draudt, 1950, syn. n. Two new species, A. draudti sp. n. and A. chlorofasciata sp. n. from China are described. A list of Palaearctic species of Atrachea is presented.
