Vesperus jertensis sp. nov. from the Jerte river valley (Cáceres prov., Spain) is described and compared with the closest allies in the genus. It differs from the closest species, V. serranoi, by the longer antennae and the brighter head, pronotum and elytral surface because of the lesser density of punctures. From the remainder of the species of Vesperus, it differs, among other characters, by the interocular distance being wider than the interantennal one. Moreover, two groups of species are defined based upon characters of head morphology and male genitalia, the V. brevicollis group and the V. conicicollis group.
