Microlicia is a Neotropical genus with about 245 species centered in central-eastern Brazil, in areas of campo rupestre and Cerrado. The majority of species occur in the states of Minas Gerais, Bahia, and Goi??s. Based on specimens from the herbaria ALCB, HUEFS, MBM, SPF, HUFU, and US, we here describe two new species from the Chapada Diamantina region, Microlicia decumbens and Microlicia macaubensis. Microlicia decumbens is apparently endemic to Aba??ra municipality, whereas M. macaubensis is known only from Brotas de Maca??bas municipality. We provide morphological descriptions, line drawings, a distribution map, and comparisons with putative relatives for both species.
