The earwig belongs to the order Dermaptera. They are small to medium-sized insects, often darkcolored and rather elongated. The modification of the cerci, which produces powerful, terminal, unsegmented, abdominal forceps, is usually stronger and more curved in males than in females. This makes them easily distinguishable in the adult and later juvenile stages. During the present study, specimens were collected in two phases: April 2019 to March 2020 and April 2020 to March 2021, from eleven districts of the Sindh province. A total of 373 specimens were captured and identified as belonging to the single genus Marava Burr, 1911, with two species: Marava arachidisand Marava sindhesis (sp. nov.). Marava sindhesis (sp. nov.) is reported as a new species in science. In addition to the species description, information about the distribution of the species is provided.
