Abstract. A specimen of Carpophilus extensus Grouvelle, 1908 has been collected in Northern Germany with a flight intercept trap. This is the first record of this African species for Europe. The lectotype of this species is designated, and synonymy of C. (Ecnomorphus) trapezicollis Kirejtshuk, 1995 with C. extensus is established.
