Abstract

Two new species of Pleidae, Heteroplea ornata new species and H. asperscyta new species, are described. With the addition of these species, there are now four species in the Neotropical genus Heteroplea. All species of Heteroplea have a distinct callus on the vertex of the head, which can be used to clearly delineate species. Keys to the genera of the family Pleidae and species of Heteroplea are provided.
