Megaphyllum uncinatumj sp. nov. is described from both Israel and Cyprus. It is assigned, together with M. iranicum Golovatch, 1983, from Iran, to the previously monotypie subgenus Persebrachyiulus Golovatch, 1983 of the large Eastern Euro-Mediterranean genus Megaphyllum Verhoeff, 1894. A refined diagnosis of Persebrachyiulus is provided. Some zoogeographical comments are also presented, likely implying several cases of anthropochoric introduction to Cyprus from the mainland Middle East and possibly even vice versa.
