Abstract

The genus Amazoneura is erected to contain A. ephippigera (Selys, 1886), A. westfalli (Machado, 2001) and A. juruaensis sp. nov. The new genus is close to Forcepsioneura Lencioni, 1999 but differs from it mainly by the poorly-developed postero-lateral tubercles of the medium prothoracic lobe, by the dark colour of the metepimerum and of the rear of the head. A. juruaensis sp. nov. (holotype male, Acre, Brazil) differs from the other two species of the genus mainly by the structure of the superior anal appendages.
