Abstract. Glaphyrus mardjanyanae sp. nov. from the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Province of Tajikistan is described and illustrated. The new species belongs to the subgenus Eoglaphyrus Semenov, 1926, which so far had included two species, G. (E.) turkestanicus Semenov, 1889 from Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and northeastern Afghanistan, and G. (E.) afghanistanicus Skrylnik et Pak, 2021 from central Afghanistan. The diagnostic characters and a key to the species of Eoglaphyrus are given. A lectotype for G. sogdianus Semenov, 1892 is designated.
Key words: Tajikistan, Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Province, lectotype designation, Glaphyridae, Glaphyrus, Eoglaphyrus, new species
