Author
Affilliation
Abstract
Seven new Brazilian species of Exogonia Melichar are described from Mato Grosso, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Rio de
Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, and Santa Catarina states. The other four known species of the genus, E. assimilis (Signoret),
E. hyalinosparsa (Melichar), E. leucampix (Signoret), and E. semivitta (Walker), are redescribed. An identification key
with male and female characters and maps with the geographical distribution of the species are given. Taxonomic notes
comparing the species are also provided. This genus is apparently closely related to Hanshumba Young, specially due to
similarities in the male genital apparatus.
