Two new species of pterygosomatid mites parasitizing geckos of the families Gekkonidae and Caprodactylidae are described:  Geckobia africana  n. sp. from  Cnemaspis africana  (Werner) from Tanzania and  Geckobia milii  n. sp. from  Underwoodisaurus milii  (Bory De Saint-Vincent) from Australia. The former species is the most similar to  Geckobia loricata  Berlese, 1892, but differs by the presence of the propodonotal shield reduced to small platelets, slender and blunt-pointed setae in the posterolateral part of the idiosomal venter and the absence of thick serrate ventral setae in posterior part of the idiosoma. For the latter species and  Geckobia simplex  Hirst, 1926, a new species group is established based on the analysis of chaetotaxy of legs I–IV. Mites of this new species group differ from the  indica  group by the presence of five setae on tibiae I–III and setae  l'GI ,  l”GIV ,  dFI ,  dFII , and  lFIII . Species of the genus  Geckobia  are recorded from hosts of the genera  Cnemaspis  Strauch and  Underwoodisaurus  Wermuth for the first time.
