Klemann-Junior et al. 2025”.</p><p>Diagnosis. Among species of the “formicaria ” species group (characterized by dense to very dense umbilicate punctures on head and pronotum, body of large size and apical maxillary palpomere elongate or conically elongate) (Márquez, 2010), R. aneba sp. nov. is similar to R. flagellicornis and R. grandipenis in the head not posteriorly narrowed, with inferior temporal carina, and ventral surface slightly convex, with dense umbilicate punctures separated by less than twice their width. However, R. aneba can be differentiated from R. flagelicornis and R. grandipenis by the proportions of antennomers, elytra to pronotum ratio, and proportions and shape of the aedeagus. In R. aneba antennomere 1 has 1.5x the length of the antennomeres 2–3 combined (antennomere 1 has nearly twice the length of the antennomeres 2–3 combined in R. flagelicornis; and 2.06x as long as antennomeres 2–3 combined in R. grandipenis) and antennomere 11 has the same size as the antennomeres 9–10 combined (antennomere 11 is 0.93x shorter than antennomeres 9–10 combined in R. flagelicornis; and 1.06x longer than antennomeres 9–10 combined in R. grandipenis). In R. aneba elytra are slightly shorter (0.94x) than pronotum (elytra are as long as the pronotum in R. flagelicornis; and 1.08x as long as pronotum in R. grandipenis). The elytra slightly shorter than pronotum is not a common character in Renda species, it is shared only by R. brachyptera in this species group. The total length of the aedeagus of R. aneba is 2.16 mm (3.55 mm in R. flagelicornis; and 4.24 mm in R. grandipenis). In R. aneba the aedeagus parameres are 0.83x the length of the median lobe (0.39x the length of the median lobe in R. flagelicornis; and 0.29x in R. grandipenis), making this character very distinctive of this new species, which has the longer parameres of all species of the group, even of all species of Renda .</p><p>Description. Holotype male, BL: 16.46 mm, FL: 8.04 mm.</p><p>Coloration: Head black, with anterior border dark reddish brown; pronotum and elytra black; abdominal segments 3–5 black; abdominal segments 6–7 black, with anterior and posterior borders dark reddish brown; abdominal segment 8 dark reddish brown, with posterior border reddish brown; abdominal segment 9 reddish brown; antennomeres 1–3 dark reddish brown (almost black), with anterior and posterior borders lighter; antennomeres 4– 10 reddish brown; antennomere 11 with posterior half reddish brown and anterior half yellowish; mandibles black; labial and maxillary palps light reddish brown; legs dark reddish brown (almost black), with tarsomeres reddish brown.</p><p>Head (Figs. 1B, 1C, 2B) oval; longer (HL: 2.43 mm) than wide (HW: 1.90 mm); not posteriorly narrowed; dorsal and ventral surfaces slightly convex.

Temple with inferior temporal carina and slightly concave area (Fig. 2B). Eyes (Fig. 1B) 0.32x head length (OL: 0.78 mm, OW: 0.41 mm), interocular distance 0.57x head width (IO: 1.09 mm). Antennomere 1 with 1.5x the length of antennomeres 2–3 combined; antennomeres 1–3 longer than wide, club-shaped; antennomeres 4–10 wider than long, gradually becoming wider from 4 to 10; antennomere 11 longer than wide, same length as antennomeres 9–10 combined; antennomeres 1–11 (Fig. 2A) with numerous brown/yellow macrosetae, macrosetae becoming smaller from antennomere 1 to 11; antennomeres 4–11 densely covered by yellow microtrichae. Labrum slightly bilobed; mandibles with external channel. Apical maxillary palpomere elongated, 1.94x length of pre-apical palpomere. Apical labial palpomere slightly widened toward apex, 2.45x as long as preapical palpomere.</p><p>Pronotum (Fig. 1D) 1.62x longer (PL: 3.00 mm) than wide (PW: 1.82 mm); wider in the middle; 0.96x head width; anterolateral margins convergent in a convex curve; posterolateral margins convergent to posterior angles in a smooth concave curve; narrow and rounded anterior border; wide and rounded posterior border. Pronotum with dense umbilicated punctures, midline with narrow longitudinal impunctate area; each puncture with long seta, brown at base and yellow at tip; interstices between punctures less than 1/2 the diameter of punctures; shiny. Posterior half of pronotum without depressed areas.</p><p>Elytra (Fig. 1E) 1.5x wider than pronotum; as long as wide (EL: 2.81 mm, EW: 2.81 mm); slightly shorter than pronotum (0.94x). Elytra with small, dense umbilicated punctures; interstices between punctures 0.5 to 2x the diameter of punctures; each puncture with long brown seta, some setae with yellow tip; shiny.</p><p>Legs (Fig. 1A) shiny; femur with long setae, brown at base and yellow at tip; tibia with long, yellow setae, denser than femur; tarsi with long, yellow setae, as dense as tibia; tibia with spines on outer margin and on apical border.

Collected with Flight Intercept Trap, installed on the ground, and baited with fresh human and pig feces 1:9 ratio (see Moura et al. 2021 for details). The capture site belongs to the company Precious Woods—Mil Madeiras Preciosas and is destined for selective logging. The vegetation in the area is Evergreen Tropical Forest “Floresta Ombrófila Densa de Terras Baixas” (Veloso et al. 1991).</p><p>Distribution. Renda aneba sp. nov. is known only from the type locality, from a collection point 2 km from the right bank of the Rio Anebá, in the municipality of Silves, Amazonas state, Brazil.</p><p>Etymology. The specific epithet refers to the name of the river (Rio Anebá) near the collection site of the holotype. Anebá is an indigenous word, from the Tupi language, which means “back”, “return” or “to return”. The specific epithet name is a noun in apposition.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/391487F3262A255A58BEFB01FD35FE4D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Among species of the “minor ” species group (characterized by fine, moderately dense punctures on pronotum, except for wide longitudinal impunctate area; body mainly black; and apical maxillary palpomere conical) (Márquez, 2010), R. boiuna sp. nov. is similar to R. mesoamericana in the reddish-brown coloration of the genital segment and posterior border of pregenital segment of abdomen; head with temple flattened; and aedeagus large, oval elongate. However, R. boiuna can be differentiated from R. mesoamericana by the shape of the head; by the size and distribution of the punctures on the ventral surface of the head; and by the aedeagus. In R. boiuna the head has parallel lateral margins, behind the eye line, and the posterior border is straight, giving the head a square shape. In R. mesoamericana the lateral margins of the head smoothly converge posteriorly and the posterior border is slightly rounded, giving the head a square oval shape. In R. boiuna umbilicate punctures on the ventral surface of the head are larger than on the lateral and dorsal surfaces (same size in R. mesoamericana); ventral surface of head with umbilicate punctures not evenly distributed in R. boiuna (umbilicate punctures evenly distributed in R. mesoamericana). The median lobe of the aedeagus of R. boiuna has a narrow and well-marked neck just below the insertion of the parameres, this neck is absent in R. mesoamericana . The aedeagus of R. boiuna has the left paramere smaller than the right paramere, while in R. mesoamericana the right paramere is smaller than the left paramere.</p><p>Description.
