Iberobaenia is a genus of elateroid beetle. It is the only member of the family Iberobaeniidae. It was first described in 2016, from two species found in Southern Spain.[1] A third species was described in 2017, from the same region.[2] Like some other members of the Elateroidea, the females are neotenic.
