Four species of the genus Nitocra Boeck are reported from the waters of the Jordan system. Nitocra incerta (Richard) b considered as a species independent from Nitocra hibernica (Brady) on the basis of biometrical considerations and on the ecological segregation of the two species in the Jordan valley. Nitocra balnearia n.sp. is described from the mineral spring of Hamei Zohar, on the shores of the Dead Sea, and is related to Nitocra spinipes Boeck. Nitocra lacustris Schmankewitsch is reported from the interstices of the gravelly supralittoral of lake Tiberias.

Some zoogeographical considerations are presented, based on the distribution of Nitocra in the Jordan Rift valley.
