Abstract

Psorocampa is represented by three species: Psorocampa denticulata Schaus, from Brazil and Uruguay, and two new species from Brazil: Psorocampa dentilinea new species and Psorocampa caatingueira new species.

Psorocampa Schaus, 1901 was proposed to include Psorocampa denticulata Schaus, 1901 from southern Brazil and has been considered a monotypic genus since that designation (Becker 2014, Schintlemeister 2016). Two more species of Psorocampa, also from Brazil, are described herein.
