In the present work, two new species of Cloeodes Traver are described based on nymphs and adults collected in the State of Espírito Santo, Southeastern Brazil. The main characteristics that distinguish the new species from its congeners are, in C. itajara sp. nov.: a) labrum with dorsal arc of setae composed of 12 setae, b) segment III of labial palp with robust and pectinate setae on inner margin, c) fore femur with apex projected, with 5−6 blunt setae, d) male imago with abdominal terga V−VII with a anterolateral triangular black mark; in C. aymore sp. nov.: a) labrum with dorsal arc of setae composed of 1 + 0 + 3 setae, b) fore femur with apex projected, with 2 blunt setae, c) male imago with abdominal terga IV with kidney-like median brown mark.

Based on studies of Piperaceae from Brazil, two new species are described that belong to Piper section Ottonia from the state of Espírito Santo. Piper bicorne is recognized by membranaceous, densely glandulosous leaves, and a bifid prophyll. Piper aghaense is recognized by lanceolate leaves with a cordate to lobate base with one side overlapping the petiole. We present descriptions, illustrations and comments about the ecology and conservation of these species.

Of the 173 species of Peperomia in Brazil, 108 are endemic. Two new species of Peperomia are described from the state of Espírito Santo: P. aggregata and Peperomia spiritus-sancti, the latter one also occurring in Minas Gerais. Both species show characteristics of Peperomia subg. Leptorhynchum (Dahlst.) Trel. ex Samain. Illustrations and morphological comparisons are presented. Four new synonymies are proposed.

We describe a new species of dull-colored flea-toad, genus Brachycephalus, from the Atlantic Forest of Caparaó mountains in southeastern Brazil. The new species is characterized by its diminutive size, “leptodactyliform” body, brownish color with an inverted V-shaped dark mark on dorsum, skin smooth, hyperossification and dorsal shield absent, linea masculinea absent, Fingers I and IV vestigial, Toe I externally absent, Toe II reduced but functional, Toes III and IV with pointed tips, Toe V vestigial, and ventral color uniformly brown. It is a leaf litter dweller, known only from type locality in the humid forests on the eastern slopes of Parque Nacional do Caparaó mountains, a protected area in the states of Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil. It is the third flea-toad occurring in the state of Espírito Santo recovered as sister to all other Brachycephalus distributed from the state of São Paulo northward in the Atlantic Forest.

Adults and tadpoles of a new species of the genus Leptodactylus are described from southeastern Brazil. Leptodactylus thomei sp.nov. can be found amidst the leaf litter within cocoa plantations along the northern coastal region of the state of Espírito Santo. It can be distinguished from other species of the Leptodactylus marmoratus group by its advertisement call, which is described, together with agonistic calls, and compared to advertisement calls of other species of the group that occur in southern and southeastern Brazil. The systematics of associated populations is discussed.

Two new species of Connarus are here described and illustrated: C. aureus and C. tomentosus. These taxa are until now known only to the Atlantic Forest in Southeastern Brazil. Diagnostic characteristics of the new species and an identification key of Connarus from Bahia and Espírito Santo states are provided, along with information on their habitat and ecology.

Two new species of Dilobopterus Signoret, 1850 are described from the Atlantic Rainforest of Rio de Janeiro State, Southeastern Brazil, based on specimens collected in Angra dos Reis (D. nelsoni sp. nov.) and Itatiaia (D. sakakibara sp. nov.). Holotypes are deposited in Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. These are the first species of the genus described after the publication in 1977 of the last comprehensive monograph on the New World Cicadellini. We also describe the previously unknown male of D. segmentalis (Signoret, 1853) based on specimens from the Atlantic Rainforest of Espírito Santo State, Southeastern Brazil (municipality of Santa Teresa). We propose a group of species within Dilobopterus (trinotatus group) based on features of the paraphyses of D. trinotatus (Signoret, 1853), D. segmentalis, and D. sakakibara sp. nov..

Two new hylid frog species of the genus Sphaenorhynchus are described from Lagoa Nova (17 o 57’89”S, 40 o 25’80”W), Fazenda Gemada, Municipality of Mucurici, State of Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil. Sphaenorhynchus botocudo sp. nov., a medium sized species (SVL 23.9–29.3 mm in males), is characterized by snout truncate in dorsal view and acute in profile, tympanum concealed, presence of a black line from the tip of snout to eye, delimiting the canthus rostralis, a distinctive longitudinal white spot under the eye, and a white stripe delimited above and below by clear brown lines, from the posterior corner of eye to the groin. Sphaenorhynchus mirim sp. nov., a small sized species (SVL 15.7–18.2 mm in males), is distinguished by the snout truncate in dorsal view and rounded, slightly acute in profile, tympanum concealed, vocal sac developed, single, subgular, extending to the chest and entering the arms, whithout longitudinal lateral folds, vomerine teeth absent, absence of a black line from the tip of snout to eye, absence of distinctive longitudinal white spot under the eye, and absence of white stripe or brown lines on dorsolateral region.
