摘要
Halorhynchus remii Chamorro & Steiner, sp. nov. is described from Madagascar. This new species is the third known species of the genus and the first for Africa. Halorhynchus remii is compared to other psam-mophilous, anophthalmous onycholipine cossonines. Transoceanic dispersal between Australia and Mada-gascar and sand burrowing adaptation are briefly discussed. A key to the species is provided.
