Abstract
We describe a new species of Cybocephalidae (Coleoptera) from Ethiopian Miocene amber, Pastillus aethiopicus n. sp. This is the second beetle species discovered in that fossiliferous amber deposit. It is the fourth species described in the extant genus Pastillus Endrödy-Younga and the first fossil species discovered. Pastillus is reviewed, the species diagnosed, listed, keyed, and distribution data recorded. Additionally, checklists of fossil Cybocephalidae, and African Cybocephalidae fauna are provided.
