Males of two new species of Cylindropsyllus Brady, 1880 (Cylindropsyllidae) are described. Cylindropsyllus ibericus sp. n. is based on a single specimen from Portugal previously misidentified as C. laevis Brady, 1880; C. govaerei sp. n. is reported from Corsican shell‐gravel. The boreomediterranean distribution of C. laevis is confirmed and a key to the species of Cylindropsyllus is presented. Redescriptions are provided for the two species of Cylinula Coull , 1971, the type species C. proxima Coull, 1971 and C. arganoi Cottarelli and Venanzetti, 1989. The relationships of Cylindropsyllus, Cylinula and Evansula Sars, 1909 are briefly discussed.
