Abstract: Five new taxa of Scydmaenidae are described: Scydmoraphes hastipes sp. n. and Stenichnus (Cyrtoscydmus) fallax sp. n. from Northern Pakistan; Euconnus zoufali sp. n. from Ukraine; Euconnus (Tetramelus) microps sp. n. from Turkey; and Euconnus (Napochus) duboisi eksilis ssp. n. from Azores. Euconnus (Tetramelus) marus nom. n. replaces Euconnus (Tetramelus) mirificus Vít, 1989, which is a junior homonym of Euconnus (Pycnophus) mirificus Franz, 1989. The Iberian Euconnus (Tetramelus) inflatipennis Franz, 1960 group of species is commented and an up to date key to species including Tetramelus inflatissimus Franz, 1975 provided together with additional data.
