Description
Summary:The article analyzes representatives of the fauna of the genus Dioctria of Uzbekistan. Two new species, Dioctria abdullayevi Mamanov et Rakhimov sp. nov. (Type locality: Kurama range (Western Tian Shan)) and Dioctria hissarica Mamanov et Rakhimov sp. nov. (Type locality: Hissar range (Western Hissar-Alai)), are described and illustrated. The new species can be distinguished from other species by several characteristics, including the shape of genitalia. The number of Dioctria species in Uzbekistan has now increased to 6. The distinctive features of the species of the genus Dioctria are analyzed comparatively, and the key to determining the representatives of the genus common in Uzbekistan is given.
