sp. n. A new synonym is proposed: Menimus seriepunctatus Gebien, 1927 (Menimus malayicus Schawaller, 2016 syn. n.). A lectotype is designated for Menimus seriepunctatus Gebien, 1927. Menimus burut sp. n. and Menimus sabahicus sp. n. are the first known species with 9-segmented antennae, whereas Menimus matangicus sp. n. completely lacks eyes. An identification key is compiled for all 16 species so far known from Borneo and Sumatra. The high morphological plasticity of the epigean species of Menimus should be re-examined in a more comprehensive study of all Gnathidiini, not only with morphological but also with molecular data. K e y wo r d s: Diaperinae, Gnathidiina, Indonesia, morphological diversity, new species, taxonomy.

A review of genus-group names for darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae (Insecta: Coleoptera) is presented. A catalogue of 4122 nomenclaturally available genus-group names, representing 2307 valid genera (33 of which are extinct) and 761 valid subgenera, is given. For each name the author, date, page number, gender, type species, type fixation, current status, and first synonymy (when the name is a synonym) are provided. Genus-group names in this family are also recorded in a classification framework, along with data on the distribution of valid genera and subgenera within major biogeographical realms. A list of 535 unavailable genus-group names (e.g., incorrect subsequent spellings) is included. Notes on the date of publication of references cited herein are given, when known. The following genera and subgenera are made available for the first time: Anemiadena Bouchard & Bousquet, subgen. nov. (in Cheirodes Gené, 1839), Armigena Bouchard & Bousquet, subgen. nov. (in Nesogena Mäklin, 1863), Debeauxiella Bouchard & Bousquet, subgen. nov. (in Hyperops Eschscholtz, 1831), Hyperopsis Bouchard & Bousquet, subgen. nov.
