Abstract: | The genus Hydora (Coleoptera: Elmidae), previously known only from New Zealand and Australia, is reported from southern Chile and Argentina for the first time. Two new taxa, Hydora annectens, n. sp., and Hydora lenta, n. sp., are described, keyed, and compared with New Zealand congeners; their distinguishing characters and typical biotopes are illustrated. The known distributions of the new taxa are plotted on a map. |
