New Zealand wicketkeeper Luke Ronchi will play for Somerset in their final four County Championship Division One matches.
Ronchi, 34, played in five NatWest T20 Blast matches for Somerset earlier this summer and is currently representing his country in their one-day series in South Africa.
Director of cricket Matt Maynard said: "Luke is a quality player and fitted into the dressing room well when he was here before, so we are delighted to be able to welcome him back for the last part of our Championship season.
"He is a fighter and the type of character we need in these last four matches."
Ronchi said: "I'm really thrilled to be given the opportunity to return to Somerset where I enjoyed my stay earlier this year.
"I have always wanted to play Championship cricket in England and I look forward to putting in some good performances for Somerset over the rest of this season."
Ronchi will make his Championship debut for Somerset against champions Yorkshire at Headingley, starting on September 1.
