A taxonomic review of the Afrotropical genus Kenyacus Alluaud, 1917 from the Rwenzori Mountains is given. Tropicoritus Alluaud, 1917 is treated as a new synonym of Kenyacus. Seven new species are described from the eastern part of the Rwenzori Mountains National Park (Uganda): K. gusarovi sp. n., K. parvus sp. n., K. berndi sp. n., K. trechoides sp. n., K. angustatus sp. n., K. similis sp. n. and K. pusillus sp. n. Two species previously known from the Rwenzori Mountains, K. ruwenzorii (Alluaud, 1917) and K. ruwenzoricus Basilewsky, 1955, are re-described, and a key to all described species of Kenyacus from these mountains is provided. The taxonomic position of Kenyacus within the subtribe Stenolophina is discussed. The genus Kenyacus is considered as a member of the Acupalpi genus group and closely related to the genus Anthracus sensu Jaeger, 2012.
对来自鲁文佐里山脉的非洲热带地区的肯亚库斯属（Kenyacus Alluaud，1917）进行了分类学综述。1917年的热带丽金龟属（Tropicoritus Alluaud）被视为肯亚库斯属的新异名。从鲁文佐里山国家公园（乌干达）东部描述了7个新物种：古萨罗夫肯亚库斯（K. gusarovi sp. n.）、小肯亚库斯（K. parvus sp. n.）、伯恩迪肯亚库斯（K. berndi sp. n.）、似步甲肯亚库斯（K. trechoides sp. n.）、狭翅肯亚库斯（K. angustatus sp. n.）、相似肯亚库斯（K. similis sp. n.）和微小肯亚库斯（K. pusillus sp. n.）。对先前已知的来自鲁文佐里山脉的两个物种，鲁文佐里肯亚库斯（K. ruwenzorii (Alluaud, 1917)）和鲁文佐里狭甲肯亚库斯（K. ruwenzoricus Basilewsky, 1955）进行了重新描述，并提供了鲁文佐里山脉所有已描述的肯亚库斯属物种的检索表。讨论了肯亚库斯属在狭脊丽金龟亚族中的分类地位。肯亚库斯属被认为是刺跗丽金龟属类群的成员，并且与耶格（Jaeger）2012年定义的炭疽丽金龟属密切相关。
