First descriptions of males of Peltonotellus raniformis (Mulsant & Rey, 1855), P. melichari Horváth, 1897 and Ordalonema faciepilosa Dlabola, 1980 are given. In addition, identification keys to the eight Caliscelidae genera of the Western Palaearctic and to the five Peltonotellus Puton, 1886 species of Europe are presented.
