Abstract

Twelve new species from three genera of Gnathiidae are described: Caecognathia rhektos, Elaphognathia aldabrae, E. gladia, E. ramosa, Gnathia antonbruunae, G. eumeces, G. glauca, G. luxata, G. serrula, G. somalia, G. stoddarti, and G. zanzibarensis. Most are from the western Indian Ocean, with one from Thailand. Gnathia nkulu Smit & Van As, 2000, is newly recorded from Madagascar.
