The taxonomic comprehension of Brazilian entomobryids had several contributions during the last decade, but the absence of detailed chaetotaxic schemes to most of endemic species difficult identifications and probably hides undescribed species in surveys across the country. Herein we describe two new species of the family and provide detailed dorsal chaetotaxy of them, in hope to guide future identifications and descriptions within the genera in Brazil and Neotropical Region. Lepidocyrtus sotoi sp. nov. is possibly more related to L. biphasis due to the lack of antennal and leg scales, but presents a unique dorsal head chaetotaxy among the Neotropical species of the genus. Entomobrya bahiana sp. nov. presents an uncommon color pattern and dorsal chaetotaxy in Th. II-III, Abd. II and IV when compared to other Entomobrya spp. from Neotropical Region.
在过去十年中，对巴西长角跳虫的分类学理解有多项贡献，但大多数特有物种缺乏详细的毛序模式，这给鉴定带来困难，并且可能在全国范围内的调查中掩盖了未描述的物种。在此，我们描述了该科的两个新物种，并提供了它们详细的背部毛序，希望能为巴西和新热带地区该属未来的鉴定和描述提供指导。新物种索托伊鳞长角跳虫（Lepidocyrtus sotoi sp. nov.）由于缺乏触角和腿部鳞片，可能与双相鳞长角跳虫（L. biphasis）关系更为密切，但在该属的新热带物种中呈现出独特的头部背部毛序。与新热带地区的其他真长角跳虫属（Entomobrya）物种相比，新物种巴伊亚真长角跳虫（Entomobrya bahiana sp. nov.）在第二至三腹节、第二和四腹节呈现出不常见的颜色模式和背部毛序。
