Abstract

A review of 13 species of the genus Carpelimus Leach, 1819 for the island of New Guinea is given. Of these, 4 species were described by the author from New Guinea in 2020, and 7 are given for the first time. A description of the new subspecies Carpelimus (s.str.) indicus wamenensis Gildenkov, ssp. n. is provided. It differs from the nominative subspecies with which the edeagus is identical in structure by larger sizes and darker colour. It is reliably distinguished by more rare punctation of the pronotum and significantly larger (about 1.5–2.5 times) punctation of the elytra.
