Two new species collected off the coast between Amapá and Maranhão state, NNE coast of the Brazilian shelf. Two new species are described, Ulosa longimycalostylifera sp.nov. and Biemna microacanthosigma sp.nov. The former can be distinguished by the possession of long and thin mycalostyles, and the latter sp.nov. is characterized by the presence of styles, two categories of sigmas with microspined ends, microxea and raphides.
