Cibyra tessellata: Mielke (2014: 214; figs 1 (geographical distribution), 10 a–b (holotype ♂ dorsal/ventral), 11 (holotype ♂ 8 th abdominal segment), 12 (holotype ♂ gen.), 13 (holotype phallus)); holotype ♂ with the following labels: / Holotypus, Cibyra tessellata C. Mielke det. 2012/ Brasil, Paraná, Guaratuba, Serra do Itararé, 1000 m, 27. III. 2006. C. Mielke leg./ DZ 15.594/ BC-CGCM [BC-JX215592]/ 20.945 Col. C. Mielke/; DZUP (examined).— Mielke et al. (2020: 169).— Grehan et al. (2023: 78).

Diagnosis. Cibyra tessellata and the next three species have a similar appearance. They uniquely share, within the genus along with the jurate species-group, the baso-central band interrupted on the male FW, and in addition, a mottled and contrasting pattern. Differences between them are discussed under the next three species.
