This study represents the first in a series of papers which aim to elucidate the taxonomic and distributional issues of uncommon and unrecorded geometrid moths of Taiwan. Nine species are included, with six newly recorded: Eucyclodes infracta (Wileman, 1911); Megabiston plumosaria (Leech, 1891); Hypomecis hyposticta (Wehrli, 1925); Eilicrinia nuptaria Bremer, 1864; Apochima excavata (Dyar, 1905) and Planociampa chlora Yazaki & Wang, 2003. The recommended or newly proposed Chinese common names are also given, with comments, for four geometrid species that occur in Taiwan, i.e. H. hyposticta, Xyloscia dentifera Inoue, 1986, E. nuptaria, A. praeacutaria (Inoue, 1976).
