Only four species of Parandrini were known in Costa Rica and Panama: three in Parandra Latreille, 1802 (of which only two are recorded to Panama), and one in Birandra Santos-Silva, 2002. This work records Parandra (Parandra) solisi (Santos-Silva, 2007) for the first time to Panama, and adds two new species: Parandra (Parandra) gilloglyi sp. nov. from Panama, and Birandra (Birandra) boucheri sp. nov. from Costa Rica and Panama. Keys to the species of Parandra (Parandra) which occur in Costa Rica and Panama, and to the species of Birandra (Birandra) known in Central America are added.
