MALE IMAGO. A) Intercalary veins on fore wing approximately 0.4 × the width of corresponding space (Fig. 10 a); B) Hind wing present, with two longitudinal veins (Figs. 10 b, 10c); C) Terga III −VII with median dark brown irregular marks and sterna II −VII with antero-lateral dark brown stripe (Fig. 5 a).

Thorax yellowish-white washed with light brown. Fore leg, coxa yellowish-white washed with dark brown on outer margin; femur with central and subapical brownish band; tibia washed with light brown; tarsus with outer half of dorsal surface dark brown. Abdomen with segments I–IV with submedial triangular to roundish brown mark; segments V, VI and X almost completely washed with brown. Caudal filaments brown, darker toward apex except for a yellowish subapical band.
Head. Labrum (Figs. 8 a, 8b). Length about 0.6 × maximum width; dorsal arc with 2 medial long setae; ventrally with 5–12 spine-like setae near lateral margin.
Hypopharynx. As in Fig. 8 c.
Mandibles (Figs. 8 d, 8e). Denticles of left mola constricted at base (as in fig. 6f).
Maxilla (Fig. 8 f). Medially with 1 spine-like seta + 8 apically pointed setae. Maxillary palp reaching apex of galea-lacinia; palp segment II 1.4 × length of segment I.
Labium (Fig. 8 g). Base of glossa expanded (reaching at least half of paraglossa); inner and outer margin respectively with around 20 and 12 spine-like setae increasing in length apically; ventral surface scattered with few short setae at base. Paraglossa dorsally with arc of 3 setae close to inner margin; ventrally with arc of 8–10 setae close to inner margin. Labial palp with segment I 0.8 × length of segments II and III combined; segment II dorsally with oblique row of 6–7 setae; segment III with distal margin slightly truncate; inner margin subequal to outer margin; ventrally covered with around 30 apically pointed setae; setae on inner margin serrate.
Thorax. Hind wing pad. Present.
Fore leg (Fig. 9 d). Ratio 1.8:1(0.6mm):1.2:0.3. Femur. Length about 4 × maximum width; outer margin with row of 14 clavate setae (length of setae about 0.1 × maximum width of femur) (Fig. 9 e); submarginal setae absent; anterior surface and inner margin with around 35 simple, spine-like tiny setae; posterior surface with around 40 scattered setae near inner margin; distal projection exceeding apex of femur (Fig. 9 a), 0.2 × width of femur, apically with 2 clavate setae (Fig. 9 a). Tibia. Outer margin with many simple setae; inner margin with two serrate setae on apex; subtending bristle blunt, clavate, extending apex of tibia (Fig. 9 f). Tarsus ventrally with row of 14+1 spine-like setae. Tarsal claw. 0.3 × length of tarsus.
Mid and hind legs (Figs. 9 b, 9c). Similar to fore leg, except for the lower number of setae on anterior surface, subapical projections of femur less developed and type of setae on inner apex of tibia (simple instead of serrate).
Abdomen. Terga (Fig. 9 g). With spines present on posterior margins of segments I–X; larger spines on posterior margin 2.7 × longer than wide.
Sterna. With spines present on posterior margin of segments IV–IX.
Gills (Figs. 9 h, 9i). Outer margin serrated on distal 1/4; inner margin slightly serrated; medial rib absent; tracheae extending from main trunk to inner and outer margins. Gill I about 1/2 length of segment II, oval. Gill IV 1 1/2 length of segment V, asymmetric, broad at middle (Fig. 9 h). Gill VII about 1 1/2 length of segment VIII.
Paraproct (Fig. 9 j). With 12–14 spines.
Cercus. With large spines on every two-segments.
Terminal filament. Without large spines.
Male imago. Lengths. Body: 7.0 mm; fore wing: 7.0 mm; hind wing: 1.2 mm; caudal filaments: broken.
Coloration (Figs. 5 a, 5b). Head yellowish washed with brown. Turbinate portion of compound eye orange dorsally, stalk dark orange (Figs. 5 a, 5b). Antenna brown.

Abdomen. Genitalia (Fig. 10 d). Forceps segment I 0.6 × length of segment II, wider than segment II, margins parallel. Forceps segment III oval, 1.1 × as long as wide; 0.1 × length of segments I and II combined. Posterior margin of subgenital plate rounded.
Female imago. Unknown.
Etymology. From the tupi language words amana (rain) and tykyra (drop). An allusion to the type-locality of the new species, Serra da Mantiqueira, whose name is also derived from these two words.
Distribution (Fig. 30). Southeastern Brazil, São Paulo State, Serra da Mantiqueira, Parque Estadual de Campos do Jordão.
Ontogenetic stage association. Rearing.
