    A known general class of superintegrable systems on 2D spaces of constant curvature can be defined by potentials separating in (geodesic) polar coordinates. The radial parts of these potentials correspond either to an isotropic harmonic oscillator or a generalized Kepler potential. The angular components, on the contrary, are given implicitly by a generally transcendental equation. In the present note, devoted to the previously less studied models with the radial potential of the generalized Kepler type, a new two-parameter family of relevant angular potentials is constructed in terms of elementary functions. For an appropriate choice of parameters, the family reduces to an asymmetric spherical Higgs oscillator.
