Sphaerodorids belonging to the genus Ephesiopsis were collected on the outer continental shelf and slope off the coast of São Paulo State, during the REVIZEE/Score Sul/Benthos Program. Ephesiopsis guayanae Hartman and Fauchald 1971 from off Guyana is the only species previously known in this genus. Ephesiopsis shivae sp. nov., differs from E. guayanae in having a longer body, macrotubercles with smaller terminal papillae, and simple chaetae not as pointed distally; eyes are absent in the new species. Four macrotubercles with terminal papillae were observed on the pygidium of E. shivae sp. nov. Such macrotubercles were not reported in E. guayanae, although the specimens are complete; the presence of these structures in the new species necessitating emendation of the genus diagnosis.

The clinical and laboratory data of a disease in a resident of Ribeira Valley, São Paulo State, southeastern Brazil, caused by an agent close or identical to Caraparu, a Group C arbovirus, was described. Although there is evidence of an intensive circulation of several arboviruses in the area, no diagnosis of human disease by these agents has been made, except the encephalitis cases caused by Rocio virus during an epidemic in 1975-1977. An antigenic difference between Caraparu strains isolated in São Paulo and in Pará States and a close antigenic relationship between Caraparu strain from São Paulo and Bruconha virus were suggested by the serological tests.
