Abstract

Lesteva brathinoides sp. n. from the eastern Sajan mountains and Lesteva sajanensis sp. n. from the western Sajan mountains are described and compared with related Lesteva species and with somewhat similar, but not closely related Brathinus species. The facies and the male genitalia of the new species are figured. The systematic positions of the new species within Lesteva are discussed but remain unclear.
