A new species of the genus Exphora Signoret, 1860 (Tropiduchidae, Elicinae, Elicini) is described from Madagascar: Exphora linnavuorii sp. n. An identification key to all Exphora species is provided.The genus Exphora was established by Signoret (1860) with its type species E. guerini Signoret, 1860, originally into the family Nogodinidae. It was recently transferred into the Tropiduchidae Gaetuliini (Gnezdilov, 2007), which was since synonymized with the tribe Elicini (subfamily Elicinae) (Gnezdilov, 2013). The genus currently includes 11 species (Bourgoin 2015) with the following described Exphora linnavuorii sp. n. and three other species recently described - E. conslanti Junkiert Walczak 2015, E. stroinskii Junkiert Walczak 2015 and E. ambatolaonaensis Junkiert Walczak 2015 (Junkiert and Walczak, 2015).
