The new genus Nanothinophilus is established based on three new species: N. armatus sp. n., type species, N. pauperculus sp. n. and N. dolichurus sp. n., found sympatrically in South Thailand. The related genus Paralleloneurum Becker, 1902 is revised and re‐descriptions are given of the two known species: P. cilifemoratum Becker, 1902, type species, and P. pygmaeum de Meijere, 1916.
