An almost complete skull of Afrohyrax namibensis from the Early Miocene green sands at Elisabethfeld, Namibia, and a maxilla from Fiskus, clarify the systematic position of this species of titanohyracid, previously known from a palate and a mandibular symphysis from Grillental. Osteological features of the skull and the dental anatomy accord with the species Afrohyrax championi from East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, but the Namibian fossils are appreciably larger. A summary of world hyracoid distribution is provided and reveals that southern Africa played an important role in the evolution of the order, during both the Palaeogene and Neogene. Keywords: Miocene, Titanohyracidae, Skull, Dentition, Sexual dimorphism, Biogeography.
