The female of Tomarus rostratus Dupuis is described for the first time, and the first record for the species in Chile is presented. Tomarus rosettae (Endrödi, 1968) is proposed as a junior synonym of Tomarus pumilus (Prell, 1937). The recently designated subspecies Tomarus maimon fossatorBurmeister, 1847 is a synonym of its nominal species. New records are provided for the following species: Tomarus cuniculus (Fabricius, 1801), Tomarus selanderi (Cartwright, 1959), Tomarus similis (Endrödi, 1968), and Tomarus rubripes (Boheman, 1858).
