Abstract
Ambohidray, located in eastern Madagascar, has recently been designated as a New Protected Area (NPA). For the first time in this protected area, the litter dwelling beetle fauna, particularly the Pselaphinae (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), was collected to improve knowledge and promote the conservation of its entomofaunal diversity. Five species of Pselaphinae were collected by sifting of leaf litter.
Two new species, Ctenistes longantennatus sp. nov. and Franziotus ambohidray sp. nov. were discovered and they are described and illustrated here. The photo of Franziotus corresponds to an undetermined species from Analamazaotra National Park. A key for species of Franziotus is provided.
The distribution of all genera known from the Ambohidray NPA is discussed.
