Namakwanus endroedyi Deschodt, Davis &amp; Scholtz, 2011, here designated.</p> <p>Gender of new name: masculine.</p> <p>DESCRIPTION. Small (7.1–9.7 mm long × 4.5–5.8 mm wide) dark brown, rounded and convex beetles.</p> <p>Head: with two small and short, slightly upturned clypeal teeth; one much smaller tooth medially on lower margin of clypeus.</p> <p>Pronotum: dark brown, convex with ovoid to round punctures.</p> <p>Protibia: tridentate in last one-third of outside margin, more or less smooth in first two-thirds.</p> <p>Elytra: strongly convex, dark brown.</p> <p>Sterna: mesometasternal suture straight.</p> <p>Scutellum not visible.</p> <p>Pygidium: shagreened with small punctures.</p> <p>DISCUSSION. Morphologically this new genus can easily be separated from Versicorpus by lacking serrations on the outside margins of the front tibiae and by being smaller (7.1–9.7 mm long) and more convex than the larger (10.1 mm) and more elongate Versicorpus. The clypeus of Namakwanus has much more pronounced clypeal teeth than Namaphilus. The known species in the genus thus currently comprise Namaphilus davisi (Deschodt &amp; Scholtz, 2007) comb. nov., Namaphilus endroedyi (Deschodt, Davis &amp; Scholtz, 2011) comb. nov. and Namaphilus ameibensis spec. nov.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C7F607FFFDFFC5A75432B1EEC86034	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It currently consists of six genera and 14 described species. These species (Deschodt et al., 2007, 2011, 2016) may mostly be associated with dung middens of rock hyraxes (Procavia capensis (Pallas, 1766)). As there are gaps in the known range of this group relative to that of rock hyraxes (Fig. 2), new related dung beetle species and genera may await discovery.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C7F607FFFFFFC0A7AB3455EBB566F9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
