Abstract - Anthaxia (Haplanthaxia) billbarri sp. nov. from the Sultanate of Brunei, belonging to the A. (H.) aeneocuprea Kerremans, 1913 species-group, is described. This new species is compared with A. (H.) acaciae Fisher, 1935 from Java, which is the most similar and probably the most related species and vicariant. Illustrations of habitus and male genitalia of both species are provided.
