\"Here, the taxonomy of the genus Rhagastis Rothschild \& Jordan, 1903 (Lepidoptera, Sphingidae, Macroglossinae, Macroglossini) from China is revised based on differences in wing morphology, male and female genitalia, and the phylogenetic relationship of the DNA barcodes. Subspecies of Rhagastis albomarginatus (Rothschild, 1894) and R. castor (Walker, 1856) are treated as \“good\” species, namely Rhagastis dichroae Mell, 1922 stat. nov.; R. everetti Rothschild \& Jordan, 1903 stat. nov.; R. aurifera (Butler, 1875) stat. rev.; R. chinensis Mell, 1922 stat. nov.; R. formosana Clark, 1925 stat. nov.; and R. jordani Oberth\ür, 1904 stat. rev. The distribution maps, biological notes, and ecological records of the genus Rhagastis Rothschild \& Jordan, 1903 from China are given, and a species inventory of genus Rhagastis in the world is also included.\"
