Wockia diabolica n. sp. and Wockia tetroidon n. sp. are described from female specimens collected from Jamaica. Both new species are distinguished from Wockia chewbacca Adamski, a Mexican species, in having a pair of signa within the corpus bursa of the female genitalia. Photographic images are provided for the imagoes, and illustrations of the genitalia are included. Distributions of these new taxa represent the first records of Wockia from West Indies.
