Zygoptera new species Neotropical damselfly Odonata

Abstract

All species of Telebasis Selys, 1865 are analyzed and Telebasis sensu lato is redefined, Helveciagrion Machado, 1980 is removed from synonym and revalidated based on morphological characters and a new genus (Juenagrion gen. nov.) and a new species (Juenagrion nanae spec. nov.—Brazil: Mato Grosso: Querência, córrego transição, 13° 03′ 35″ S & 52° 12′ 03″ W) are erected. Diagnostic illustrations are presented.
