Contribution to the Arabo-Saharan psammophilous Saprininae, with descriptions of two new species (Coleoptera, Histeridae, Saprininae, Hypocaccini)

Two new psammophilous Saprininae, <i>Neopachylopus pharkidodes</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> and <i>N. penatii</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> from the Arabian Peninsula and Algerian Sahara, respectively, are described and figured herein. Both are tentatively assigned to the genus <i>Neopachylopus</i> Reichardt, 1926, pending further studies. A key to species is given. The second known exemplar of the very rare <i>Exaesiopus therondi</i> Lackner, 2015 from the United Arab Emirates is reported and figured.
