Brasineura diamantina Silva-Neto & García Aldrete 2015: 170 , Figs 1–7 ; Silva-Neto & García Aldrete 2016 (catalog); SilvaNeto, García Aldrete & Rafael 2016 b: 445, (taxonomy); Silva-Neto, García Aldrete & Rafael 2016 c: 80 (phylogeny); Silva-Neto, García Aldrete & Rafael 2018: 547, Fig. 28 (taxonomy).

Variation in the wing venation. Male (M1), left forewing with M vein four branched, with M 4 forked resulting in M 4a, M 4b (as type 2 in Moura Lima et al. 2018), right forewing with M vein three branched, with M 2 forked resulting in M 2a and M 2b, but with M 2a incomplete, M 3 forked resulting in M 3a, M3 b ( Fig. 24 ), both hindwings with M vein two branched as the holotype. Male (M2) left forewing with M vein five branched, with M 5 three branched, resulting in M 5a, M 5b1 and M 5b2 (as type 10 in Moura Lima et al. 2018), right forewing and both hindwings as the holotype. Male (M3) fore- and hindwing veins as the holotype. Male (M4) left forewing with M vein five branched, without secondary branches (as type 5 in Moura Lima et al. 2018), right forewing and both hindwings as the holotype. Female (F1), both forewings as the holotype and both hindwings with M vein unbranched ( Fig. 25 ). Females (F2-F3) with fore-hindwing veins as the holotype. Female (F4) right forewing with M vein five branched, with M 5 three branched, resulting in M 5a, M 5b1 and M 5b2 (as type 10 in Moura Lima et al. 2018), left forewing and both hindwings as the holotype.
