description: <i>Thoreyella maracaja</i> sp. nov. (Figs. 5, 13, 16, 21, 26, 31, 38–41, 53–55, 65, 69, Table I) <i>Thoreyella</i> <b>sp. nov</b>. 1 <i>in</i> Bernardes <i>et al.</i>, 2009: 2–4, 7, 9, 11–22. Etymology. Allusive to the type-locality. Diagnosis. Head triangular; lateral margins of juga outlined with black (Fig. 13). Humeral angles robust anteroventrally directed.Abdominal spine surpassing mesocoxae (Fig. 11). Spiracles placed on calli. Trichobothria tubercles black. Posterior margin of pygophore ventral rim processes with 1+1 submarginal tooth not visible in posterior view of the pygophore (Fig. 26). Gonocoxites 8 reduced obovate, sutural and posterior borders convex, with a low cusp. Laterotergites 8 entirely concave. Description. General color green, legs and antenna yellowish-brown. Punctures concolorous with the head. Lateral margins of juga outlined in black (Fig.13). Antenniferous tubercles with a longitudinal black line. Propleurum with two black macula. Humeral angles blackish by the presence of black punctures which are also present on posterior half of pronotum. Sternum concolorous with the body surface. Abdomen ventrally without macula, slightly darker along lateral margins. Abdominal spine dark on females. Spiracles calli white; bothrium black. Ovate. Head with frons and vertex flat. Median margins of juga parallel along apical third, divergent before tylus. Buccula rectangular, apical tooth rounded. Antennal segments: I&lt;II&lt;III&lt;IV&lt;V. Humeral angles with robust spines obliquely directed anteroventrally. Pronotum cicatrices well marked on posterior line; anterolateral margins concave smooth. Anterolateral pronotal spines short acute. Scutellum subtriangular (proportion 1:1) attaining abdominal segment VI (Fig. 5). Corium also attaining abdominal segment VI. Ostiolar ruga slightly curved anteriorly occupying half of metapleura. Evaporative area as long as ostiolar ruga and almost the same width. Mesopleural evaporative area occupying ¾ the ostiolar ruga length. Femur apical spine pointed, more developed on posterior legs, larger than half the width of femur (Fig. 10). Abdominal spine surpassing mesocoxa, apex curved inward (Fig. 11). Spiracles laterad to a callus (Fig. 11). Trichobothria placed on spiracles line. Posterolateral margins of segment VII convex. Posterior margin of segment VII, in females, obscuring gonocoxites 8. Male genitalia (Figs. 5, 13, 16, 21, 26, 31, 38–41, 53– 55). Pygophore. Process of the ventral rim with 1 + 1 submarginal tooth, not visible in posterior view. Posterolateral angles oblique, concavityoccupying alittle less than the width of the ventral rim process. Parameres bilobate (Figs. 38–41) <i>Phallotheca</i> (Figs. 53–55) with postero-ventral opening; strongly convexdorsally, andslightly concaveventrally. <i>Vesica</i> slightly curved at base, strongly curved at apex, not surpassing the conjunctivallobes (Fig. 53). Secondary gonopore (Fig. 52) open ventrally. Female genitalia (Figs. 65, 69). Laterotergites 8 entirely concave, with rounded apices. Gonocoxites 8 reduced obovate, slightly cuspidate, posterior and sutural margins convex. Laterotergites 9 triangular, lateral half slightly convex, median half flat, with a tiny concavity at posterior third. Gonapophyses 8 with a large concavity at middle, where the segment X fit; lateral margins roundish. Segment Xtrapezoidal, transversely striate. <i>Parsintermedialis</i> withless than half the length of the <i>capsula seminalis</i>. Posterior annular flange larger than anterior annular flange. Anterior portion of vesicular area curved, sclerotized, with constriction delimiting the posterior portion of vesicular area. Measurements in Table I. Distribution.

Comments. The unique characters found in <i>T. maracaja</i> <b>sp. nov</b>. are trichobothria tubercles black and abdominalspine robust attaining mesocoxae. <i>T. maracaja</i> <b>sp. nov</b>. shares with <i>T. brasiliensis</i> the abdominal calli conspicuous, with <i>T</i>. <i>trinotata</i> the lateral margins of juga outlined in black, and with <i>T</i>. <i>taurus</i> the shape of the humeral angles.
