Gayubo & Schmid-Egger (2014) described Nitela feltoni and N. arabica from the UAE. Nitela feltoni was only known from females. In the meantime, we examined the unknown male of this species. It is described here and a new key for males and females is given for these two species, based on previously unnoticed characters. Some new records are also listed.
