Abstract
Carabodes wonalancetanus n.sp. and C. cochleaformis n.sp. are described. Adults of both species are large and black, with no notogastral setal dimorphism and with setae c2 positioned anterolaterally on the notogaster. Genital plate neotrichy, with up to six pairs of setae, is present in C. cochleaformis. The distributions of these species overlap in New Brunswick and New England, with C. wonalancetanus extending farther north and west into Canada, where it is transcontinental, and C. cochleaformis extending southwest along the Appalachian Mountains to North Carolina and Kentucky. In New Hampshire, both species were more frequently encountered and more abundant in old-growth or relatively undisturbed forests. Carabodes wonalancetanus prefers leaf litter and rotten logs of conifers, whereas C. cochleaformis is most abundant in fungi, leaf litter, and rotten logs of both conifers and hardwoods.
