  abstract = {{D}uring a research project aimed at the study of the {C}ulicinae fauna of {G}abon and carried out in the {N}ational {P}ark of {L}a {L}ope, we captured an unknown sandfly male specimen (genus {P}hlebotomus) by {CDC} miniature light trap belonging to a new species for {S}cience. {F}urthermore, the originality of his genitalia does not allow us to include this species in one of the existing subgenus, thus in this paper we propose the creation of a new subgenus, as {P}hlebotomus ({L}egeromyia) multihamatus sp. nov., subg. nov. described from the {N}ational {P}ark of {L}a {L}ope, through one male captured with {CDC} miniature light trap. {A} new species and a new subgenus of sandfly is characterised by a short style with three spines, a paramere wearing a basal hook as well as a basal pouch and the absence of basal lobe on the coxite. {T}he originality of the genitalia of the male gives way to discussion about potential primary homologies between {P}. multihamatus sp. nov. and {P}hlebotomus ({A}bonnencius) fortunatarum, {P}hlebotomus ({A}naphlebotomus) stantoni and {P}hlebotomus ({E}uphlebotomus) argentipes, which should be verified for future studies. {T}he discovery of this new species in {G}abon must encourage the study of sandflies in this country.},
