Zusammenfassung:The taxonomic position of both species Cantharomorphus longipes Fiori, 1914 from Sicily and the former Cantharomorphus rufidens (Marseul, 1864) from Corsica and Sardinia have been considered. The comparison between the two highlights the need to establish a new genus for the latter taxon, which has been named Simplexonycha gen. nov. and includes only the species Simplexonycha rufidens (Marseul, 1864) comb. nov. Several information and photographs of both species, as well as description of the female of Cantharomorphus longipes, until now unknown, are also supplied.
