Two new species of the superfamily Oripodoidea, Scheloribates (Bischeloribates) lizelhugoae sp. nov. and Zygoribatula josefstaryi sp. nov. are described from material collected from an expedition to Ethiopia during February and March 2012. An annotated checklist of identified oribatid mite taxa is presented. Seven species and two genera are the first records for Ethiopia.
