Description:	Two new species of Alstroemeria (Alstroemeriaceae) from the Brazilian savannas are described: A. stenophylla M. C. Assis, which is characterized by its narrow linear-lanceolate leaves, concentrated on the distal region of the vegetative stem, and for its ruby-spotted inner tepals, close to A. gardneri Baker and A. plantaginea Martiuse x Schultes & Schultesf .; and A . tombolatoana M. C. Assis, which may be recognized by its coriaceous leaves, outer tepals oblong-spatulate, without patterning, but the inner tepals spatulate and ruby-maculates, sympatric with A. gardneri. Descriptions, comments, and illustrations are presented.
