ABSTRACT
New data on Phaneropterinae from Ecuador, French Guiana, Peru and Bolivia are given. Vellea pulchra sp. nov.,
Euceraia umbrosa sp. nov., E. subaquila colorata subsp. nov., E. cercata sp. nov., E. cercata elchaco subsp. nov., E. con-
voluta sp. nov., E. proxima sp. nov., E. abnormalis parallela subsp. nov., E. varia sp. nov., E. varia simulata subsp.
nov., E. gusarovi sp. nov., Pycnopalpa porphyretica sp. nov., P. occidentalis sp. nov., P. gracilenta sp. nov., Hetaira an-
gusta sp. nov. and H. morona sp. nov. are described. New subgenera of the genus Pycnopalpa Audinet-Serville, 1838
(Vitrosoria subgen. nov. and Gracisoria subgen. nov.) are established. Euceraia sanguinea Piza, 1950, sp. dist. and
Zenirella Piza, 1973, gen. dist. are restored from synonymy. Zenirella punctata (Brunner-Wattenwyl, 1878), comb.
nov. and H. aurigera (Rehn, 1918), comb. nov. are transferred from the genera Ligocatinus Rehn, 1901 and Topana
Walker, 1869 to Zenirella and Hetaira Brunner-Wattenwyl, 1891, respectively. Two former genera are included in
the genera Hetaira and Gnathoclita Hagenbach, 1841 (Pleminiinae) as their subgenera Atopana Vignon, 1930, stat.
nov. and Disceratus Scudder, 1869, stat. nov. (= Tettohenicus Gorochov, 2012, syn. nov.), respectively. Some new data
on species distribution are given.
