Abstract
Two new species of Biguembia Szumik, 1997 (Embioptera: Archembiidae): B. flavibrunnea n. sp. and B. pulchra n. sp. from the Cerrado domain, state of Tocantins, Brazil are described, diagnosed and illustrated. A cladistic analysis of the genus using 104 morphological characters is performed, and the systematic position of the two new species is analyzed and discussed. For the order Embioptera, the data/information presented here where all the instars (eggs, nymphs and adults) of both sexes are incorporated on the original description of one of the species including notes of developmental time, constitute a fundamental contribution to the understanding for the classification of the group. Additionally, an identification key for males of the genus is provided.
