Abstract: Cryptostemma miyamotoisp. nov. and C. pavelstysisp. nov. from Japan are
described. Habitus images and illustrations of diagnostic features, including
genitalic structures, are provided. A key to the Eastern Palaearctic species is
offered to facilitate identification. Habitats and behavior of the two new
species are discussed based on the field and laboratory observations. The gender
agreement of Pachycoleus japonicus(Miyamoto, 1964) is corrected.
