Abstract
Five species are recorded and figured. Three new taxa are described (P seudodrepanocanthus, n. subg., D. (D.) mineti, n. sp., D. (P.) obscuru s, n. sp.). The lectotypes of five species are designated (D. lineatus , D. acanthotarsis, D. connexus, D. spinitarsis, D. nasutus). A new sy nonym is given (D. connexus = D. nasutus). D. spinitarsis becomes bona species again. Pseudoxyomus is reduced at subgeneric rank.
