Abstract

Two new species and one subspecies in the riodinid genera Xenandra C. & R. Felder, 1865, Argyrogrammana Strand, 1932, and Pachythone Bates, 1868, are described from Mato Grosso and Rondônia states in south-west Brazil. The symmachiine species caeruleata Godman & Salvin, 1878, is transferred to the genus Esthemopsis C. & R. Felder, 1865, from Xenandra (stat. rev.).
