Abstract

Descriptions of Liagoceradocus unciferus, sp. nov. (from Vatulele, Fiji Islands) and L. lobiferus, sp. nov. (from Malaita, Solomon Islands and Savai'i, Western Samoa) are provided. A key to all known species of Liagoceradocus is presented, and type specimens of L. pusillus Barnard, 1965, and L. lonomaka Barnard, 1977, have been re-examined.
