Abstract
The subgenus Scaptia (Lepmia) Fairchild, known only from mountanous areas of Southeast of Brazil, is redescribed
and illustrated. It is contrasted with similar species of Scaptia (Pseudoscione). It is more similar to the Australian
Myioscaptia and Plinthina than to the other New World Scaptia subgenera.
