The species of the mylabrine genus Mimesthes are revised and a new species (M. karooensis) is described from the South African Karoo. The systematic position of the genus is also discussed and an identification key to the species is proposed. Geographical distribution and habitat preferences, as well as other bionomic features, are summarised.

Keywords: Taxonomy, Coleoptera, Meloidae, Mimesthes, new species, key, bionomics, southern Africa
