Using new characters (e. g., shape of the prothoracal disc, shape of the pygidium and its ratios comparing with the anal sternite, elytra and prothoracal disc, shape and armoury of the urosternite 8), a detailed diagnosis, a redescription and a key to males of 9 species of the genus Stenalia Mulsant are provided. Based upon study of type series, S. araxicola Khnzor. (lectotype designated) and S. ascaniaenovae Lazorko are redescribed. Morphological diagnoses of little-known species S. testacea (F.), S. brunneipennis Mulsant, S. iranica Horak, S. gracilicornis Baudi, S. escherichi Schilsky and S. bilyi Horak are improved. S. ermolenkoi sp. n. from Azerbaijan is described. The following synonymy is established: S. testacea (Fabricius, 1787) = S. dolini Lazorko, 1974, syn. n. The holotype of S. ermolenkoi sp. n., the lectotype of S. araxicola, the holotype and paratypes of S. ascaniaenovae are deposited at the Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (Kyiv).
