Two new leiodid genera and species, Camisolus ptinoides gen. nov., sp. nov. and Camiarodes nunni gen. nov., sp. nov. are described from southeastern Australia and New Zealand, respectively. Each new species is placed within its own genus on the basis of morphological uniqueness within Camiarini (Camiarinae) based on the presence of an enlarged maxillary palpomere 4 and metanepisternum with a lateral, tongue-like process that overlaps the elytron in repose. A key to the described genera is provided for world Camiarini. The tribe, new to Australia, is otherwise known only from New Zealand (six genera including one new) and southern South America (one genus). Both new genera are found exclusively in high altitude areas.
分别从澳大利亚东南部和新西兰描述了两个新的隐翅虫属和物种,即拟粉隐翅虫属新属及新物种Camisolus ptinoides和纳氏隐翅虫属新属及新物种Camiarodes nunni。基于隐翅虫族(隐翅虫亚科)内的形态独特性,每个新物种都被归入各自的属,其独特性表现为上颚须节4增大,以及后胸后侧片有一个侧向的舌状突起,在静止时与鞘翅重叠。为世界隐翅虫族提供了一个已描述属的检索表。该族对澳大利亚来说是新发现的,此前仅在新西兰(包括一个新属在内的六个属)和南美洲南部(一个属)有记载。这两个新属都仅在高海拔地区被发现。
