Two new species in the green lacewing genus Santocellus (Neuroptera, Chrysopidae, Leucochrysini)
Based on adult morphological features, two new species are described and assigned to the leucochrysine genus <i>Santocellus</i>: <i>Santocelluslegrandi</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> from Central America and <i>Santocellushelene</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> from Bolivia. As a result, the genus, which now contains five known species, becomes more securely defined. An updated catalog and an illustrated key to the known <i>Santocellus</i> species are provided.
