Two species of Termitaradus are here described and illustrated: T. poleoae sp. nov., from a root of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (Malvaceae) infested with Amitermes foreli (Termitidae), on the premises of a nursery of ornamental plants, located in Maracaibo city, Zulia State, and T. shepardi sp. nov., from an hypogean nest of Heterotermes tenuis (Rhinotermitidae) as its host, in a rural area in the state of Monagas. Taxonomic characters of interest of both species are presented and a key to the species of the genus is included.
