Orateon praestans sp. nov. from Yemen is described and illustrated. Based on the detailed examination of its morphology, Orateon gen. nov. is most similar and presumably related to the genera Terametopon Vienna, 1987 and Alienocacculus Kanaar, 2008 sharing with them ciliate elytral epipleuron, labial palp chaetotaxy and protibial spur position.
