Abstract
The author studies 10 species of the Tribu Cuphoceratini, belonging to the genera Ccrpecrypta Townsend, 1908, Cyanopsis Townsend, 1917, Spanipalpus Townsend, 1931, Neocuphocera Townsend, 1927, Beskiocephala Townsend, 1916 and Deopalpus Townsend, 1908. Eight species are identified with previously described species and two species are considered new to science: Neocuphocera aurifacies sp. n. and Deopalpus reinhardi sp. n. The characteristics of the new species are chiefly founded in the male genitalia. Generic definitions are based on the following characters: presence or absence of ocellar bristles, shape and relative length of antennal articles and arrangement of the head bristles in both sexes. The material is located in the Institute Oswaldo Cruz collections, Guanabara, Brazil.
