Two new species of deep-water eelpouts are described from specimens trawled in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica. One, Lycenchelys xanthoptera, is characterized by its yellow pectoral fins, absence of pelvic fins and palatine teeth, double lateral line, intermediate counts of the axial skeleton, and relatively few suborbital pores (5-6). The other, Pachycara goni, is characterized by its furcate gill rakers, mediolateral branch of the lateral line beginning on the tail, high precaudal vertebral count (27) and seven suborbital pores, all below the eye.
