%X The New Zealand endemic longicorn beetle genus Drototelus Broun is revised. The scope of the genus is redefined. The monotypic genus Neocalliprason Brookes is synonymised with Drototelus. Two known species, D. politus Broun and D. elegans (Brookes), are redescribed and one new species, D. rarus, is described. These changes have brought the number of Drototelus species to three. Distribution and biology are noted for each species. Adults are diurnally active flower-visitors, and larvae are dead-wood feeders. Phylogenetic relationships of these species are cladistically analysed, confirming the monophyly of the revised genus and determining the sister-species relationship between D. politus and D. rarus.
