Sepidiini is a speciose tribe of desert-inhabiting darkling beetles, which contains a number of poorly defined taxonomic groups and is in need of revision at all taxonomic levels. In this study, two previously unrecognized lineages were discovered, based on morphological traits, among the extremely speciose generaPsammodesKirby, 1819 (164 species and subspecies) andOcnodesFåhraeus, 1870 (144 species and subspecies), namely thePsammodes spinosusspecies-group andOcnodes humeralisspecies-group. In order to test their phylogenetic placement, a phylogeny of the tribe was reconstructed based on analyses of DNA sequences from six nonoverlapping genetic loci (CAD,wg, COI JP, COI BC, COII, and 28S) using Bayesian and maximum likelihood inference methods. The aforementioned, morphologically defined, species-groups were recovered as distinct and well-supported lineages within Molurina + Phanerotomeina and are interpreted as independent genera, respectively,TibiocnodesGearner & Kamińskigen. nov. andTuberocnodesGearner & Kamińskigen. nov.A new species,Tuberocnodes synhimboidesGearner & Kamińskisp. nov., is also described. Furthermore, as the recovered phylogenetic placement ofTibiocnodesandTuberocnodesundermines the monophyly of Molurina and Phanerotomeina, an analysis of the available diagnostic characters for those subtribes is also performed. As a consequence, Phanerotomeina is considered as a synonym of the newly redefined Molurinasens. nov. Finally, spectrograms of vibrations produced by substrate tapping of two Molurina species,Toktokkus vialis(Burchell, 1822) andT. synhimboides, are presented.
