Abstract
A new genus, Afroramhus Legalov, gen. n. with type species: Afroramhus yakovlevi sp. n. from the subtribe Rhamphina (Rhamphini) from Zimbabwe is described. The new genus differs from the genus Indodinorrhopalus Pajni et Sood, 1981 in narrowly separated procoxal cavities and femora with small tubercle and from Rhynchaenus Clairville, 1798 in the unarmed pro- and mesotibiae and femora with small tubercle. This is the first record of the tribe Rhamphini for Zimbabwe. A list of the species of the subtribe Rhamphina of sub-Saharan Africa is provided.
