Abstract

Abstract : Before the present study, the genus Dubioniscus included four species occurring in Central and South Americas. The examination of Dubioniscus delamarei, D. marmoratus and D. negreae allowed us to revise the genus and to move D. goeldii to Calycuoniscus . Moreover, two new species are described, D. depressus n. sp. from the state of São Paulo, and D. elongatus n. sp. from the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:1D2B9F44-96EE-48A6-A8DE-D24F190F9AF3 .
