Abstract

Two new species of Tricheops Newman, T. remus sp. nov. and T. guillemeti sp. nov. from Western Australia are described and illustrated. The genus Tricheops is redescribed and a key to species is provided. The structures associated with the unusual three-lobed eyes of Tricheops and Bardistus Newman are discussed.
