Resumo

Two new opilioacarid species from Northeast and Southeast of Brazil are described. Neocarus setilatussp. nov. from a gallery forest in Piauí and Neocarus marambaiasp. nov. from a restinga area in Rio de Janeiro. Both species have the similar starshaped integument character and smaller, broader setae.
