Abstract
The species of the genus Cyrtolabulus van der Vecht, 1969 occurring in Madagascar are revised, with the description of three new species: Cyrtolabulus flavorufus sp. nov., Cyrtolabulus parvulus sp. nov. and Cyrtolabulus scrobalis sp. nov. Pseudonortonia madacassa Gusenleitner, 2012 is synonymized under Cyrtolabulus suboscurus (Giordani Soika, 1941) syn. nov., and a neotype is designated for Labus bekilyensis Giordani Soika, 1941. A comparison with the closely related genus Cyrteumenes Giordani Soika, 1991 and a key to the species are provided.
