Two new species of the reticulata group of the widespread genus Oecetis McLachlan 1877 are described from Pohnpei. Oecetis mackenziei, sp. nov., and O. squamifera, sp. nov., are the first species described from Micronesia after the poorly known Triaenodes esakii Tsuda 1941, known from Koror and Babelthuap, Palau. Figures are presented of the male and female genitalia of O. mackenziei, and the male only of O. squamifera: wing photographs of males of both species are included.
