We report the discovery of two transiting exoplanets from the WASP survey, WASP-150b and WASP-176b. WASP-150b is an eccentric (e=0.38) hot Jupiter on a 5.6 day orbit around a V=12.03, F8main-sequence host. The host star has a mass and radius of 1.4  M and 1.7  R respectively. WASP-150b has a mass and radius of 8.5 M J and 1.1 R J , leading to a large planetary bulk density of 6.4 ρ J . WASP-150b is found to be ∼3 Gyr old, well below its circularization timescale, supporting the eccentric

WASP-176b has a mass and radius of 0.86 M J and 1.5 R J , respectively, leading to a planetary bulk density of 0.23 ρ J .
