Two new monotypic genera of the family Scathophagidae are described: Jezekia gen. nov. with the type species Jezekia kmenti sp. nov. from the Palaearctic Region (Czech Republic), and Suwaia gen. nov. with the type species Parallelomma longicornis Hendel, 1913 from the Oriental Region (China: Taiwan). Suwaia longicornis (Hendel, 1913) comb. nov. is redescribed. Comments on generic classification, differential diagnoses of both genera and species involved are given, and important diagnostic characters are illustrated.
