Abstract: We present diagnoses and descriptions of two new species of Phyllonorycter discovered in the North Province of Cameroon: P. gozmanyi sp. n. and P. farensis sp. n. These are the first records of Phyllonorycter from this country. We provide images of adults and illustrations of the male and female genitalia. We briefly discuss the diagnostic differences within the P. rhynchosiae (Vári) group and present a distribution map for both new species.
