New species and new records of Dicranocentrus Schott, 1893 (Collembola: Entomobryidae) from Southeastern Brazil

摘要

Aimed at extending the incipient knowledge of Dicranocentrus in Brazil, in this study we describe and illustrate the morphology and chaetotaxy of four new species from Espirito Santo, Minas Gerais and Sao Paulo States and also two new records of D. heloisae for Minas Gerais and Sao Paulo States. The new species D. magnus sp. n., D. albicephalus sp. n. and D. marimutti sp. n. belong to the gracilis-group and D. pikachu sp. n. to the marias-group. A map with their distribution in Brazil and a table with Neotropical species' main characteristics are also provided. The species herein reported represent the first record of Dicranocentrus for Sao Paulo State.
