PDFAbstract
The genus larina is described, being known only from Tanzania. The new genus shows a characteristic morphology of mnesosternurn and rnetasternurn: meso-metasternal suture with an arcuate stria cornposed of elongated punctures and another similar stria on rmetasternal apex;
between both striae there is a smnooth surface contrasting with the rest of the sternal area which is densely punctate. Xenosternus Bickhardt, 1911 and Catacraerus Bickhardt, 1920 are closely related genera.
