- Abstract
The tenebrionid tribe Tentyriini (without Epitragini) was known from Madagascar only from three endemic and so far monotypic genera (Nothrocerus Fairmaire, 1891, Rhomaleus Chatanay, 1915, and Paulianesthes Koch, 1962). New collections prove the presence of a second species of Paulianesthes in southwestern Madagascar, being described in the present paper. Paulianesthes fouquei sp. nov. was found by pitfall traps on sandy soil in a small piece of forest with grazing cattle and sheep.
