Terametus capicola Motschulsky, 1869 (Coleoptera : Tenebrionidae : Lagriinae : Lupropini) was rediscovered and is redescribed. The taxonomic position of the monotypic genus Terametus Motschulsky, 1869 within the Lupropini is established and a close relationship to the genus Enicmosoma Gebien, 1922 is postulated. Terametus seems to be restricted to the Table Mountain on the Cape Peninsula of South Africa, and some distributional remarks are added.
