The twistorlike formulation of the type-II Green-Schwarz superstring with [ital N]=(2,0) and (4,0) heterotic world sheet supersymmetry is constructed. Both of the Virasoro constraints are solved with the help of twistors in dimensions [ital D]=4 and [ital D]=6. As in the case of [ital N]=(1,0) world sheet supersymmetry, considered earlier, no world sheet gauge fields enter the actions. On the component level the resulting Lagrangians are classically equivalent to the Green-Schwarz one.
