Abstract
A new genus, Pseudarhaphes Dolin & Girard, gen. n., and one new specie s, P.fleutiauxi, sp.n., are described in this paper. The new genus is very similar to Arhaphes Candeze, but differs from it by short and alm ost straight keels on hind angles of prothorax, highly developed prost ernal sutures and a different structure of metasternum.
