Abstract

Neopsis campestris sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on male and female specimens collected on native grassland at the Guartelá State Park, Paraná State, Southern Brazil. New distribution records are presented for three previously known species, Neopsis aurea Takiya & Dietrich, 2017, Neopsis myrceugeniae Takiya & Dietrich, 2017 and Neopsis robusta Linnavuori, 1965, representing the first known records of the subfamily Tartessinae for Paraná State. A distribution map is also provided to illustrate the locality data of specimens studied herein.
