摘要
Two new species of the genus Ataenius Harold, 1867 are described, illustrated, and discussed. Ataenius kudrnai Minkina, Gama, and Skelley, new species from Paraguay, belonging to the A. aequalis-A. platensis species group, is a typical member of the genus. However, Ataenius vazdemelloi Minkina, Gama, and Skelley, new species from Brazil, a member of the A. complicatus species group, is easily distinguishable from all other members of Ataenius by the shape of its elytral interstriae and erect macrosetation covering the body.
