Abstract: Two new chaetognath species, Krohnitta balagopali and Sagitta meenakshiae, are described from the Andaman Sea (Indian Ocean). K. balagopali is easily distinguishable from the other two known species of the genus by its unpigmented eye, fully rayed fins and smaller size. S. meenakshiae has distinct characters, such as a small size, lower tail percentage, lower meristic counts and a difference in eye pigmentation as compared with three related species. The two new species appear to be endemic to this coral ecosystem.
