A new fossil species of Ostracoda of the genus Bythocythere Sars, 1866, Bythocythere mylaensis n. sp. is described. The specimens have been discovered in locality "Punta Messinese" (Cape Milazzo Peninsula, NE Sicily) in Early Pleistocene sandy-silty sediments (Globorotalia truncatulinoides excelsa Zone) cropping out in unconformity on Messinian limestones. Moreover, other fossil specimens coming from post glacial taphocoenoses off Santa Maria di Leuca (northern Ionian Sea) can be assigned to Bythocythere mylaensis n. sp.
