Two new species of spiders from northern Australia are placed in Hamataliwu Keyserling, the first record of this genus in Australia. H. cooki sp.n. is described from both sexes from Queensland and the Northern Territory, but H. monroei sp.n. is known only from females collected in Queensland and the Torres Strait. A key to females is given.
