Abstract
Two new species, Cypridinodes kornickeri n. sp. and Paradoloria baini n.sp. are described in the present paper. They were collected from the littoral in South Australia. This new discovery raises the number of Cypridinodes and Paradoloria species in the vicinity of Australia to six in both genera. For easier discrimination between the species, the keys to the world representatives of Cypridinodes Brady, 1902, Paradoloria Hanai, 1974, and Doloria Skogsberg, 1920 are presented at the end of this paper.
