Abstract

The Philippine predatory cunaxid fauna of the genera Pseudobonzia Smiley and Scutascirus Den Heyer are treated taxonomically, including two and three species, respectively. Three species are described as new to science, namely, P. gruezoi, S. contiguus and S. pentascutellus. The two other species, P. clathratus (Shiba) and S. exasperatus (Shiba) are recorded as new to the Philippines. A key to species is given for each genus, and descriptions, illustrations and distributional data for each species.
