The taxonomy of the Trachysalambria curvirostris species group is clarified based on abundant material from East Asia and other localities in the Indo-West Pacific and the Mediterranean. The following six species, including one new species, are recognized : T. curvirostris (Stimpson, 1860), T. longipes (Paulson, 1875), T. aspera (Alcock, 1905), T. palaestinensis (Steinitz, 1932), T. albicoma (Hayashi and Toriyama, 1980), and T. nansei new species. For nomenclatural stability, a neotype of Trachysalambria curvirostris is designated. Species differences are discussed in detail and a key to these species is provided.
