Abstract

A new species of the genus Pseudopachylus — P. martensi — is described from São José do Barreiro, São Paulo State, Brazil. Olynthus alticola H. Soares, 1945, from Alto da Serra, also in the São Paulo State, is transferred to Pseudopachylus. The genus Pseudopachylus now comprises six species.
