The flea genus    Araeopsylla    Jordan and Rothschild, 1921 contains nine species distributed throughout the Palaearctic, Ethiopian and Oriental Regions primarily on mollosid bats. A new species of bat flea,    Araeopsylla   goodmani   , is described. This new species is represented by three females collected from one male specimen of the mollosid bat    Chaerephon   jobimena    Goodman &amp; Cardiff, 2004 from Fianarantsoa Province, Madagascar. A second new species,    Araeopsylla   smiti   , is described from one male from the Rift Valley, Kenya. It was collected from the molossid bat    Chaerephon   bivittatus    (Heuglin, 1861). This represents the first record of    Araeopsylla    in Kenya. Previous records of    Araeopsylla    in the Malagasy region included    Araeopsylla   martialis    (Rothschild, 1903) from Reunion Island and Madagascar. One hundred fifty-eight specimens (64♂, 94♀) of    A.   martialis    were collected from 67 specimens (flea intensity of 2.4 fleas per host) of    Mormopterus   jugularis    (Peters, 1865) across three provinces of Madagascar (Fianarantosa, Toamasina, and Toliara).    Mormopterus   jugularis    is clearly a common host for    A.   martialis   .    Dampfia   grahami   grahami    (Waterston, 1915) is also reported from    Eptesicus   matroka    (Thomas &amp; Schwann, 1905) which is the first record from this host species and the first time the genus    Dampfia    has been documented in Madagascar. Although    Lagaropsylla   consularis    Smit, 1957 and    Lagaropsylla   idae    Smit, 1957 have been reported in Madagascar previously,    Mops   leucostigma    Allen, 1918 is a new host record for    L.   idae   . The flea intensity of    L.   idae    (64♂, 83♀) on 28 specimens of    M.   leucostigma    was extremely high at 5.3 fleas per host. A key to the genus    Araeopsylla    is provided.
