Popis: Three new species of cholevid beetles, Magdelainella zivojindjordjevici n. sp. (southwestern Serbia), Magdelainella mucanjensis n. sp. (Mt. Mučanj Serbia), and Magdelainella nikolateslai n. sp. (Mt. Goč, Serbia) are described and diagnosed. All taxonomically important features (including female genitalia) are illustrated. Magdelainella noesskei (Apfelbeck) (from Bosnia and Herzegovina) is given full specific status and is clearly separated from M. serbica (Müller) (from Serbia). All new species are clearly distinct from other existing congeners. These forms are of Tertiary origin and age and represent both relicts and endemics inhabiting southwestern and central parts of Serbia, respectively.
