The contaminata group of Scatophila Becker, 1896 from the Palaearctic Region is reviewed. A new species S. hirsovae sp. nov. from the Czech Republic (type locality: Kateřina, Soos Reserve), Slovakia, and Turkey is described. Redescription of the contaminata group, diagnoses and photographs of the two other known European species: S. contaminata (Stenhammar, 1844) and S. pumilio (Loew, 1860), and a key for their identification are provided. Scatophila contaminata is recorded from Siberia for the first time.
