Abstract

Rhagovelia kararao sp. nov., collected in sandstone caves from northern Brazil, is described and compared with similar and related species. Rhagovelia pachymeri Nieser \& Melo, 1997 is synonymized with Rhagovelia robusta Gould, 1931. An updated key to the species of the robusta group occurring in Brazil is presented. (AU)
