            <p>(Figs. 1–3)</p>
            <p> Type species:  Lolodorfus flavus sp. n. (by present designation). </p>
            <p> Diagnosis.  Lolodorfus gen. nov. differs from Mimolibnetis Pic, 1936 in having 11-segmented antennae while those of Mimolibnetis are 10-segmented. Among other Dexorinae genera,  Lolodorfus gen. nov. , Mimolibnetis and Lampyrolycus can be easily recognized by elytra presenting 4 longitudinal costae and intercostal intervals with irregular reticulate cells. These genera differ in the length of elytral costa 1, which is fully developed in Lampyrolycus, while medially shortened in  Lolodorfus gen. nov. and Mimolibnetis.  Dexoris and Elgodexoris have a completely different arrangement of the elytra presenting irregular setiferous tubercles, while reticulate cells and elytral costae are absent. </p>
            <p>Description. Eyes large, interocular distance 1.1x wider than eye diameter. Antennae filiform, 11-segmented. Antennomere 1 large, 2 half as long as 1, 3 about 1.4x longer than 2, 4 twice as long as 3 and 1.15 longer than 5, 4 longer than remainder. Antennomeres 4-10 diminishing in length (Figs. 1, 2). Mandibles and labrum reduced, vestigial. Maxillary and labial palpi elongate, apices of terminal palpomeres pointed. Pronotum trapezoidal, strongly widened posteriorly, 1.5x wider basally, anterior margin weakly stretched forwards, lateral margins elevated dorsally, posterior angles acute. Pronotal carinae conspicuously flattened, reduced in pronotal folds forming broadly rhomboidal areola medially (Fig. 3). Discal area of pronotum punctate. Scutellum slightly emarginate distally. Elytra elongate, subparallel-sided, 3x longer than humeral width. Each elytron with 4 longitudinal costae, primary costa 1 absent in distal third. Intercostal intervals with more or less double rows of irregular reticulate cells anteriorly, posterior half of elytra presenting single row of reticulate cells between longitudinal costae. Prosternum narrow, strongly transverse. Legs slender, compressed, trochanters elongate, as long as 1/3 of femur, obliquely attached to femora, tibiae straight. Female unknown.</p>
            <p>Etymology. The generic name is masculine and is latinised from the locality, Lolodorf in the Cameroon, where the species was collected.</p>
            <p>Distribution. Cameroon.</p>

            <p>Description. Head, pronotum, antennae, and legs light brown to yellow, abdomen dark brown. Body length: 2 mm, humeral width: 0.55 mm. Female and immature stages unknown.</p>

            <p> Subdihammatus Kleine Lyropaeinae Miniduliticolini  Atamania Kazantsev Autaphes Kazantsev Microeron Kazantsev Miniduliticola Kazantsev Lolodorfus gen. nov. is here considered to be closely related to the genus Mimolibnetis. Both the genera share several common characters (shape of pronotum, elytra with primary costa 1 shortened, double rows of reticulate cells irregular).  Lolodorfus gen. nov. and Mimolibnetis differ namely in the number of antennomeres (11 in  Lolodorfus , 10 in Mimolibnetis). On the basis of a morphological phylogenetic analysis Kazantsev (2013) proposed a new subfamily Mimolibnetinae for “the most basal” lycid genus Mimolibnetis Pic, 1936. Neotenic characters were here considered to be synapomorphies of lycid neotenic lineages. However, no consideration was given to frequent appearance of homoplasies when reduced characters evolve (e.g. reduced mouthparts of lycid neotenic taxa, reduction of elytral costae etc.). Similarly, the selection of a single outgroup,  Thilmanus (Omalisidae) , was questionable, while multiple outgroups have been favored to overcome outgroup sensitivity problem. This morphological tree of  Lycidae (Kazantsev 2013) supported monophyly of neotenic lycids from Oriental, Afrotropical and Neotropical regions, which strongly contradicts the results of molecular phylogenetic analyses (Bocak et al. 2008, Malohlava et al. 2010) and extremely low vagility of neotenic taxa with flightless females. As  Lolodorfus gen. nov. and Mimolibnetis share several characters with  Dexoris Waterhouse, 1878 and Elgodexoris Bocak et Bocakova, 1988 (Dexorinae), particularly reduced mouthparts, trochanters obliquely attached to femora, and the shape of pronotum with longitudinal folds in basal half broadly divergent anteriorly, monophyly of Afrotropical neotenic lycids is here assumed, and  Dexoris , is considered to be closely related to  Lolodorfus gen. nov. + Mimolibnetis clade. Consequently, Mimolibnetis Pic, 1936 is transferred to the Dexorinae Bocak et Bocakova, 1989, and the subfamily Mimolibnetinae Kazantsev, 2013 is proposed to be a younger synonym of Dexorinae Bocak et Bocakova, 1989. </p>
            <p> Further research will require thorough field work in Afrotropical Region. Then, analyses of DNA sequences could shed more light on phylogenetic relationships of  Lolodorfus gen. nov. and the subfamily Dexorinae. </p>
