Abstract

Arthropoda were collected by fogging the canopies of two tree species, Goupia glabra and Calophyllum
brasiliense in the Adolpho Ducke Forest Reserve near Manaus, Amazonia/Brazil. The Collembola
Symphypleona obtained by these studies are described here. The 45 specimens collected belong to 9
species from 6 genera; 8 species and 2 genera (Adisius maculatus n.g. n.sp., Adisius fuscus n.g. n.sp.,
Arborianna cupiubae n.g. n.sp., Sminthurinus aureussetosus n.sp., Sphaeridia bivirgata n.sp., Sphaeridia
duckei n.sp., Sphyrotheca caputalba n.sp., Sphyrotheca coeruleocapitata n.sp.) are new to science.
