The predominantly boreal sawfly genus Amauronematus is seldom recorded in the Mediterranean Region. Amauronematus (Brachycoluma) spaethi sp. n. and A. (A.) sp. near histrio (SERVILLE, 1823) are here recorded from Corsica. Imaginal morphology of A. spaethi sp. n. is compared with A. viduatus (ZETTERSTEDT, 1838). Hostplant of the new species is Salix atrocinerea.
