A new species, Orthosinus laosensis Legalov, sp. nov. from Laos (Hua Phan Prov.) is described and illustrated. This new species differs from O. direptus (Marshall, 1931) in the longer and narrower elytra, wider elytral interstriae and not coarsely punctate pronotum with subparallel sides and from O. tuberculatus Legalov, 2021 in the suboval elytra without large pilose pustules, and the pronotum longer than wide. A list of species of the genus Orthosinus Motschulsky, 1863 is given.
