Abstract

Three new species of Chromatonotus Hebard (C. bahiaensis, C. dextrodigitatus, C. diminutivus) are described from Mato Grosso, Bahia and Pernambuco states, Brazil, and Chromatonotus elegantula R.S. Albuquerque, 1974 is transferred to Ischnoptera Burmeister, 1838 as I. elegantula (R.S. Albuquerque, 1974) comb. nov.
