	abstract = {Descriptions are given of two new species of Merodon Meigen (Diptera: Syrphidae) from the island of Lesvos (Greece): Merodon papillus Vujic, Radenkovic \& Perez-Banon n. sp. from the ruficornis group species and Merodon sapphous Vujic, Perez-Banon \& Radenkovic n. sp. from the aureus group. In addition to classical morphological characters, partial sequences of the mitochondrial COI gene are generated for each taxon as DNA {\textquoteright}barcodes{\textquoteright}. Main characteristics of the species habitats are reported. The zoogeographical significance of these endemic taxa to the biodiversity of the island is discussed.},
