Micatagla hajeki sp. nov., a new species belonging to the genus Micatagla Argaman, 1994, closely related to M. antropovi Pagliano, 2002, is described from specimens recently collected during the Czech entomological expeditions on the island of Socotra. The new species is characterized by uniformly pale red body, with the exception of black terga II–VI and white spurs on legs; and by small lateral teeth of tergum VI distributed regularly on the margins, getting smaller in proximity of the apex.
