Two new polydesmid species are described, illustrated, and diagnosed: a troglobitic, Brachydesmus mulaomerovici n. sp., from Bosnia and Herzegovina and epigean Brachydesmus verrucosus n. sp. from Macedonia. The new taxa belong to inferus- and stygivagus-groups of species, respectively. Relationships with congeners are briefly discussed. The distribution map and key are given for all currently known taxa belonging to these groups of species. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br. 173038
