A remarkable new species of Anotylus Thomson, 1859 is described from Madagascar (Fianarantsoa and Toamasina), not only the so far largest from there but with an interesting ventral colouration. A. steineri sp. n. is also notable for possessing in the male aedeagus an apicomedial hook, feature of the genus Oxytelus, till now undocumented in Anotylus. The new taxon is illustrated by colour dorsal and ventral habitus photographs and line drawings of genitalia of both sexes. The species A. flavipennis (Kraatz, 1859) is among the earliest named exotic staphylinids, yet not found since its description. It is now reported from Laos (Khammouan prov.) based on a female, habitus illustrated for the first time; this being its first exact locality and country record.
