“…nov. were seen perched and flying in shaded areas along the drainage channels of the transcardoso dirt road crossing through the tree-like restinga vegetation. This boggy terrain hosts shallow puddles with a very slow flux at which larvae and adults of other endemic restinga-dwelling odonates, such as the protoneurine Forcepsioneura lopii and the corduliids Schizocordulia rustica (Hagen in Selys, 1871), and Lauromacromia picinguaba Carvalho et al, 2004 were collected (Ehlert & Pinto, 2020;Pinto, 2019;Pinto & Araujo, 2020). Although no additional information on the habitat of the population in Bertioga is known, we are confident that it is strongly similar to that in the Ilha do Cardoso State Park.…”

Cyanallagma demoiselle sp. nov. (holotype male deposited in DZUP: Brazil, São Paulo State, Cananéia, Ilha do Cardoso State Park), a new small greenish blue and black damselfly, is described, illustrated, and diagnosed based on males and females from the southeastern Atlantic Forest. This new coenagrionid is named after one of the most celebrated projects, the Demoiselle 20 or libellule aircraft, designed by the Brazilian inventor and aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont (1873–1932). This is the third new odonate species discovered in the same restinga-like formation at São Paulo, and like many other odonates from this assemblage, C. demoiselle sp. nov., appears to be a typical inhabitant of this type of environment. Due to its sharing many characteristics with other Cyanallagma, the new species can be considered a chimera. Its body coloration and genital ligula are similar to those of C. trimaculatum, whereas its caudal appendages closely resemble those of C. nigrinuchale. Despite of recent advances in taxonomic knowledge about Cyanallagma, this study highlights the need for better understanding the morphological correspondences or homologies among the structures of caudal appendages.

Three Atlantic Forest endemic species of emerald dragonflies of the genus Navicordulia Machado & Costa, 1995 are reviewed through a morphological comparative analysis. All name-bearing types and additional specimens of the Navicordulia atlantica-complex-Navicordulia atlantica , Navicordulia mielkei Machado & Costa, 1995and Navicordulia miersi Machado & Costa, 1995were investigated to assess their taxonomic and nomenclatural status. Based on our results the hypothesis of these three nomina corresponding to distinct species is no longer supported. The proportional size of caudal appendages, an additional crossvein in cubito-anal space in the hind wing, as well as minor differences in coloration of pterostigma are not reliable diagnostic characters for supporting their specific status. We consider the three simultaneously available nomina as synonyms, and by action of the first reviser, Navicordulia atlantica Machado & Costa, 1995 is selected as valid nomen, hence N. mielkei syn. nov. and N. miersi syn. nov. are their subjective junior synonyms. Photos, other illustrations, and a new species-level diagnosis are given. Despite of the advances of taxonomic knowledge of Navicordulia, the second species-rich corduliid genus in the Neotropical region, the status of some species still necessitates a full revision.
