( Figs 1-3 ) Type material. Holotype (male): Cameroon , West Prov. , Bafoussam , under bark and at light, 20- 22.ix.2007 , C. DingaDinga , ( AHEC ) . Paratype ( 1 female ): the same data as holotype, ( JHAC ) . Description of holotype . Male. Body black, broad oval, ( Fig. 1 ). Length of body 2.8 mm , width of body 1.9 mm . Head coarsely punctuate, with a few short and bended brown hairs, maxillary palpi darkish brown, eyes large with very small microsetae, antennae 11- segmented with a 3- segmented club. The first segment of the antennae is brown, the club very darkish brown to black and all other segments are yellow ( Fig. 2 ). Forehead with ocellus. Pronotum entirely black, shiny, sparsely and coarsely punctate, with strong dark and slightly erected hairs, the hind edges more or less spacious covered with white hairs, a very few white hairs are intermixed also in the middle of the posterior margin. Lateral margins are not visible from above. Scutellum small, black and triangular, without hairs or puncture. Elytrae black, sparsely and coarsely punctate. As the pronotum they are shiny and sparsely covered by slightly erected, strong dark hairs. On each elytra twelve small distinct margins of white hairs build three or four very blurred fasciae and an apical spot. The underside of the specimen is coarsely and (especially the visible sternits) more densely punctate than the elytrae 1 and pronotum, covered with finer, straight and procumbent brown hairs. Tibiae and tarsae are reddish brown, the femurs darkened and sparsely covered with fine brown hairs. Male genitalia ( Fig. 3 ). Female. Externally quite similar to male, but body somewhat more narrow. The antenna is a little bit shorter with a slightly smaller club as in male. Length of body 2.8 mm , width of body 1.7 mm . Differential diagnosis. The new species belonged to the “ P . nobile species group“ defined by Háva (2006); species visualy similar to P. albonotatum (Pic, 1927) and P. borowieci Háva & Kadej, 2006b , but differs from them by the colour on the elyra and pronotum, forms of male and female antennae and structure of male genitalia; from other known species belonged to the species group differts by the form of antennae and structure of male genitalia. Etymology. Patronymic, dedicated to Mr. Killyiana Angelus from Tanzania , who supplies much and most interesting dermestid material to the authors. 2 3
