Yezonychus falsicornus sp. nov. infesting Rubus spp., Dysoxylum spe ctabile, and Weinmannia racemosa, and Yezonychus brevipilus sp. nov. infest ing Leionema nudum, are described from New Zealand. A key to known species of Yezonychus is given. Data on the biology of the species are included. Tr ibolonychus collyerae gen. et sp. nov. is described from Nothofagus sp. in New Zealand.
