A new species, Lepidocyrtus (Lanocyrtus) absens sp. nov., and a new record, Seira delamarei Jacquemart, 1980, both from intertidal zone of the east coast of India are described. The complete dorsal chaetotaxy on each tergite, including S-chaetae and microchaetae, is exhaustedly explored in L. absens sp. nov.; s-chaetae d1 and d2 on lateral Abd. III and median sensillum on Abd. V, setae L1 and im on Abd. III, and setae C1p, pe and s on Abd. IV are absent. The ciliate basal seta and 2 sublobal hairs on maxillary outer lobe, vestigial seta r and ciliate setae a1-5 on labium, and elongate median inner tooth on unguis are also diagnostic features of the new species. The tropical species S. delamarei is recorded for the second time from Asia besides Thailand.
