| - Male adult of Smittia decoini and S. hadrimani spp. n. is described based on material collected by Malaise traps placed in the integral biological reserve of the Remoray Nature Reserve, eastern France. Some relevant morphological characters (long anal point, triangular inferior volsella, crista dorsalis tooth shaped, etc.) present in S. decoini sp. n. are also observed in S. amoena Caspers, 1988, S. nudipennis (Goetghebuer, 1913), S. paranudipennis Brundin, 1947 and S. pratorum (Goetghebuer, 1927). The latter five species belong to the nudipennis-gr. S. hadrimani sp. n. resembles to S. remoraya Moubayed&Tissot, 2019. Both species are considered as sister species and belong to the remoraya-group. The presence of some unusual characters in S. decoini sp. n. (anal point spatulate apically, virga composed of 3 long spines, pars ventralis present, megaseta located apically) and S. hadrimani sp. n. (anal point constricted and ellipsoidal at base, virga absent, gonostylus with a pointed posterior spine, crista dorsalis single) allowed us to consider them as biogeographic representative elements, which deserve greater conservation measures. The current two descriptions increase the total number in the genus to 40 species from Europe and 28 from France. At present, S. decoini sp. n. and S. hadrimani sp. n. are only known from their type-locality. Comments on their taxonomic position and their ecology are highlighted.
