Abstract
The descriptions of males of the two described species of Ramiheithrus (R. virgatus Neboiss and R. kocinus Neboiss) are expanded using additional material. The female, pupa and larva of Ramiheithrus virgatus are described for the first time for the genus. Preliminary genetic barcoding analysis suggests the presence of additional undescribed species that are only known as larvae. The unusual larval habitat is described and issues relating to this are discussed.
