Two Neoibidionini from Bolivia are described as new: Neocompsa schneppi sp. nov. and Tropidion nancyae sp. nov. The new species are compared to closely related species and previous keys by Martins and Galileo (2007, 2009) are modifi ed to include them. Illustrations of dorsal, ventral and lateral habitus, as well as head structures are included for both species. Comments are also included on color and pattern variation of each species.
The previously published list of Coleoptera holotypes in the Museo de Historia Natural, Noel Kempff Mercado (MNKM), Santa Cruz, Bolivia is updated to include those deposited in the Museo since then though the end of 2015. Literature citations for the original descriptions of each listed holotype are also provided along with summary comments regarding family composition and authorship of included species. Photographs of collector, authors, habitats, and major Bolivian type repositories are provided.
