Abstract

Both specics of Pycnotropis hitherto known from Amapá state, Brazil, i.e. P .subareata (JEEKEL, 1963)
and P. goeldii GOLOVATCH, VOHLAND & HOFFMANN, 1998, are revised based on type material. Both
appear quite similar but superficially "good" species differing in a number of peripheral and gonopod
characters such as outline of some metaterga as well as the degree of development of both certain sternal
structures and gonotelopodite branches. An improved key is provided to these two species to facilitate their
recognition.
