A group of eyeless trechini ground beetles’ genera distributed in western Japan, the Rakantrechus Complex, is reviewed, and a key to this Complex and a key to its component genera are provided. A new species of the genus Nipponaphaenops S. Uéno, 1971, N. kojii sp. nov. is described under the new subgenus Tanakaphaenops subgen. nov. Additionally, new taxonomic treatment Rakantrechus (Iyotrechus) hisamatsui (S. Uéno et Naitô, 2009) comb. nov. is proposed. Keys to the subgenera of Rakantrechus and Nipponaphaenops are provided. Revised definition of the genus Nipponaphaenops is proposed.
