Abstract. New genus and species of cockroaches of the subfamily Epilamprinae, Coriaceolamprodes rubidus gen. et sp. nov., are described from the Malaysian state of Sarawak (Borneo Island). This genus is closely related to the genera with asymmetrical armament of tarsi: Calolamprodes Bey-Bienko, 1969, Pseudocalolampra Roth et Princis, 1971, and Paracalolamprodes Anisyutkin, 2015.; however, it readily differs from these genera by the nearly symmetric hypandrium and the unique pressbutton-like shape of the apex of sclerite L3 of the male genitalia.
Key words: cockroaches, taxonomy, morphology, Borneo, Sarawak, Dictyoptera, Blaberidae, Epilamprinae, new genus, new species
