Abstract

Three new genera and six new species of Pyrgodesmidae are described from a primary terra firme
tropical rainforest patch near Manaus, Central Amazonia of Brazil: Adisiella n.gen. with A. circularis n.sp.
(the type species) and A. geniculata n.sp., Docodesmus hirudiformis n.sp., Tauricollarium n.gen. with T.
biramosum n.sp. (the type species) and T. uniramosum n.sp., and Pseudoporatia n.gen. with P. perplexa
n.sp. (the type species only). Myrmecodesmus SILVESTRI, 1910 is considered as a senior subjective
synonym of Gonographis SCHUBART, 1945 (n.syn.), with M. hastata (SCHUBART, 1945), M. adisi
(HOFFMAN, 1985), M. minuscula (GOLOVATCH,1996), and M.duodecimlobata (GOLOVATCH, 1996)
formally reallocated therein (all n.comb.).
