- Abstract
Two new species of Euptychia are described: Euptychia audacia Brévignon, Fratello & Nakahara n. sp. and Euptychia aquila Fratello, Nakahara & Brévignon n. sp. These two taxa, the recently described Euptychia marceli Brévignon, 2005 and E. roraima Nakahara, Fratello & Harvey, 2014, a quartet of Euptychia from the Guiana Shield region, are compared morphologically. New information on E. marceli Brévignon, 2005 is revealed, and the taxonomic status of E. rufocincta Weymer, 1911 is discussed including its possible synonymy with E. picea Butler, 1867.
