Anterior femoral spot extending from the femoral groove to the 6th anteroventral spine, rectangular, an effaced black color ( Fig. 38 View FIGURE 38 A). Foretibiae with 11–13 posteroventral spines, and 14–16 anteroventral spines; tibial spur dark on its anterior surface, the last spine before it may be dark on its anterior surface; the tibiae have a dark spot on the middle of the anterior surface ( Fig. 40 View FIGURE 40 A). Foretarsi with apical black spots on the anterior surface of the tarsomeres I to IV. Discoidal area of the forewings with an opaque-green stripe anteriorly after the stigma, suddenly becoming hyaline. Spot on the stigma circular or slightly elongated, small, with an anterior white spot and a posterior brown spot. Discoidal area of the hindwings hyaline with or without yellow stripes on the crossveins and anal area hyaline ( Fig. 30 View FIGURE 30 A).
Genitalia. Left phallomere longer than wide, sclerite L4B longer than wide; paa elongated, slightly dilated on the left side of its base, angled approximately 45° from the body axis, afterwards curving to the left, apex simple, directed ventrally ( Fig. 42 View FIGURE 42 B); pda short, narrow, flattened, sharply bent 90° to the right, apex strongly sclerotized, tapered ( Fig. 45 View FIGURE 45 B); afa elongated, parallel to the body axis ( Fig. 43 View FIGURE 43 B), right margin smooth and sinuous ( Fig. 44 View FIGURE 44 B), posterior apex tumid, with a projection on the right margin, rugged and strongly sclerotized, anterior apex straight, margins strongly sclerotized and tumid, without forming a groove ( Fig. 43 View FIGURE 43 B); loa short, bent to the right ( Fig. 43 View FIGURE 43 B); membrane adjacent to afa glabrous ( Fig. 43 View FIGURE 43 B). Right phallomere with the posterior apex rounded; bm short, with an expansion on the middle ( Fig. 46 View FIGURE 46 B); pia short, weakly sclerotized ( Fig. 47 View FIGURE 47 B–48B); pva short, sclerotized, rectangular apex ( Fig. 48 View FIGURE 48 B); an elongated, apex smoothly rounded ( Fig. 47 View FIGURE 47 B).

Forecoxae with 7–11 large spines, which alternate with 6–10 smaller spines ( Fig. 37 View FIGURE 37 A). Forefemora broad, the first three discoidal spines dark on their anterior surface; 15 anteroventral spines, the first spine and all the big spines dark on their anterior surface, the 8th, 10th, and the 12th spines may present a small spot of the same coloration on their insertion. Anterior femoral spot absent or, if the spot is present, it extends from the femoral groove to the 6th anteroventral spine, rectangular an effaced black color ( Fig. 39 View FIGURE 39 A). Foretibiae with 11–12 posteroventral spines, and 15–16 anteroventral spines; tibial spur dark on its anterior surface, the last spine before it may be dark on the anterior surface; the tibiae have a dark spot on the middle of the anterior surface ( Fig. 41 View FIGURE 41 A). Foretarsi with apical black spots on the anterior surface of the tarsomeres I to IV. Spot on the stigma circular, medium sized, without reaching the middle of the discoidal area, with an anterior white spot and a posterior brown spot. Costal area of the hindwings hyaline, discoidal and anal areas hyaline with yellow stripes on the crossveins ( Fig. 30 View FIGURE 30 B).
Genitalia. Base of the gonapophysis VIII projecting inwards ( Fig. 49 View FIGURE 49 A); bv roughly triangular ( Fig. 49 View FIGURE 49 A), apex tumid, the inner surface sculpted ( Fig. 50 View FIGURE 50 A); ib sclerotized and sculpted ( Fig. 50 View FIGURE 50 A); pe short, weakly sclerotized, with smooth margins ( Fig. 50 View FIGURE 50 A); gs weakly sclerotized, smooth ( Fig. 51 View FIGURE 51 A); ls roughly rectangular, posterior process elongated, conical ( Fig. 51 View FIGURE 51 A).

Remarks. Saussure & Zehntner (1894) described Stagmatoptera pia based on a female specimen with locality label from Brazil. After examination of this exemplar, other females with more precise locality information, two male of S. nova (holotype and paratype), as well as other S. nova males, convinced us that all of this material represent one single species that originally had their males and females described separately. Stagmatoptera pia and S. nova present a congruent geographical distribution and they are similar to individuals of the corresponding sex of S. femoralis . Therefore, we propose S. nova as new junior synonym of S. pia .
Distribution. Brazil (Bahia, Espírito Santo, Pernambuco, Rio Grande do Norte).
