Abstract

The genus Clavicornaltica Scherer 1974 consists of very small, soil-dwelling flea beetles in South, Southeast and East Asia. Due to their diminutive size and morphological similarities, very little is known about their ecology and taxonomical diversity. It is likely that further studies will reveal this genus to be much more speciose than the 30 species currently recognised. A new species of Clavicornaltica from Brunei Darussalam is described, C.mataikanensis Otani et al., sp. nov. This is the second species of this genus recorded from Ulu Temburong National Park.
