A unique species, Gapudipentax guiting Lucañas gen. et sp. n. (Blattodea: Corydiidae: Latindiinae), is described from Sibuyan Island, Philippines. It differs from other genera in Latindiinae by its pentagonal pronotum, brachyptery in males and the absence in venation of the male tegmina. The species would be the fifth Corydiidae recorded from the country and the first from Sibuyan Island, Romblon. A brief discussion on species composition of Latindiinae is provided.
