The tribe Vatellini Sharp, 1882 is composed of 55 species divided in two genera. Even though a recent revision of the tribe was made, Vatellini of the new world are weakly explored with great gaps in the distributions of species. In Brazil the knowledge is based only on a few localities. In this work two new species are described and illustrated, Vatellus caissara sp. nov. and Vatellus yanomami sp. nov.; new records are given for Brazil: Vatellus maculosus Miller, 2005 in the state of Mato Grosso, Derovatellus lentus (Wehncke, 1876) in Amazonas, Pará and Rio de Janeiro, Vatellus lateralis (Sharp, 1882) in Alagoas, Ceará, Espírito Santo, Pará, Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Sul, Vatellus sahlbergi (Sharp, 1882) in Rio de Janeiro, and Vatellus tarsatus (Laporte, 1835) in Pará. A checklist with all species of Vatellini occurring in Brazil is provided and steps for identification of the new species are added in the key of Miller (2005).
瓦泰利尼族(Sharp,1882)由55个物种组成,分为两个属。尽管最近对该族进行了修订,但新世界的瓦泰利尼族研究不足,物种分布存在很大空白。在巴西,相关知识仅基于少数几个地点。在这项研究中,描述并图示了两个新物种,即凯萨拉瓦泰利(Vatellus caissara)新种和亚诺马米瓦泰利(Vatellus yanomami)新种;给出了巴西的新记录:马托格罗索州的黄斑瓦泰利(Vatellus maculosus)(Miller,2005)、亚马逊州、帕拉州和里约热内卢州的迟缓德氏瓦泰利(Derovatellus lentus)(Wehncke,1876)、阿拉戈斯州、塞阿拉州、圣埃斯皮里图州、帕拉州、伯南布哥州和南里奥格兰德州的侧斑瓦泰利(Vatellus lateralis)(Sharp,1882)、里约热内卢州的萨氏瓦泰利(Vatellus sahlbergi)(Sharp,1882)以及帕拉州的跗斑瓦泰利(Vatellus tarsatus)(Laporte,1835)。提供了一份巴西所有瓦泰利尼族物种的清单,并在米勒(2005)的检索表中增加了新物种的鉴定步骤。
