Abstract
Two new species of gelechiid moths from the genus Namlika M. Omelko et N. Omelko, previously known from one species from Central Laos, are described from Borneo. N. davidi M. Omelko et N. Omelko 2019 — the type species of the genus — and the new species share the structure of the labial palpi with tufts of scales on the middle segment and the pattern of the forewings, the shape of the uncus, gnathos, cucullus and sacculus of valvae as well as processes at the base of the aedeagus in the male genitalia. Unlike the type species, the bursa copulatrix in the female genitalia of the new species has a paired horn-shaped, rather than a ribbon-shaped signum.
