A new species of Homalocerus Schoenherr from the Atlantic coast of the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil (Coleoptera, Belidae, Belinae), with notes on color pattern and on the sclerites of the internal sac. Homalocerus bimaculalus sp. nov. (type locality: Brazil, Sao Paulo) is described and illustrated, and comments on the sclerites of the internal sac of aedeagus and on color pattern are provided. The new species is compared to other similar species of the genus, being distinguished by having three clusters of carmine pubescence on pronotum and two lateral whitish oval spots located slightly before the middle of each elytron. Six species of Homalocerus, including the new one, are known from the State of Sao Paulo. The previously published identification key for species of Homalocerus is updated to include H. bimaculalus.
