摘要
Two new species of the African and Madagascan hydraenid tribe Parhydraenini are described from South Africa. Discozantaena occidentalis n. sp. and Pneuminion fontinalis n. sp. are described and illustrated, including high resolution digital images of holotypes (online version in colour). Features distinguishing the new species from known congeners are presented, and notes provided on the ecology of these rarely-collected genera, both of which are associated with damp areas at the edges of water.
