A new taxon Oncocnemis michaelorum srnkai Beshkov, ssp. n. is described from the Balkan Peninsula, Bulgaria. The new subspecies, in comparison with the other European members of the Oncocnemis confusa (Freyer, [1839]) species group, shows differences both in outward appearance and in the female and male genitalia, including the everted vesica. Oncocnemis michaelorum srnkai Beshkov, ssp. n. is a local endemic race, found in three localities close to each other ca. 30 km NW of Sofia. It is abundant in the type locality.
