We report two new forms of cirolanid isopods ascribed to Palaega sp. and P. steatopigia n. sp. (Cirolanidae) from the Middle Pliocene of Campore (Salsomaggiore Terme, Parma) and Monticelli di Quattro Castella (Reggio Emilia), Emilia Romagna, N Italy. This is the first record of Palaega Woodward, 1870, reported from the Middle Pliocene of Emilia Romagna and in the paleo-Adriatic Gulf. Palaega steatopigia n. sp. represents the third species described in Italy and in the Mediterranean area
