摘要

Helophorus salinus n. sp. and H. karatavicus n. sp. are described from separate localities in Kazakhstan. H. salinus n. sp. resembles H. subca-rinatus Angus, 1985 in its narrow pronotum and eight-segmented antennae, while H. karatavicus n. sp. resembles H. kazakhstanicus Angus, 1995 and other members of the H. minutus Fabricius, 1775 group in its pale colour, pronotum with yellow anterior and lateral margins, and nine-segmented antennae. The aedeagi of both species are distinctive.
