Himatinimi Cockerell, Ent. News 17: 243, 1906.

This genus contains 14 species recorded from Africa, Madagascar, the Seychelles, India, Java, and one each in North and Central America. The North American Himatinum errans LeConte is said to be an inquiline in the galleries of the scolytid Ips grandicollis (Eichoff) under the bark of yellow pine.

In addition to two Javanese species, the following new species is the only one thus far recorded from a Pacific island.
