A new species of the recently erected genus Tortopsis is described from males and females imagos collected in Macaé river, Rio de Janeiro State. Tortopsis canum sp. nov. can be recognized by the color pattern of the head and pronotum, strongly shaded with black in both sexes, male genitalia with parastyli long and straight and female parastyli receptor “C” shaped, with receptors large, occupying nearly all extension of sternum VIII. This new species represents the first record of the genus Tortopsis in Brazil.

Byrsopteryx Flint, 1981 is a small genus of microcaddisflies exclusively Neotropical in distribution. Currently, 15 species are known in the genus, 2 of which occur in Brazil, both described from Rio de Janeiro State. In this paper, we provide descriptions and illustrations for all stages of a new species of Byrsopteryx from Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. Byrsopteryx carioca sp. nov. is distinguished from other Byrsopteryx species by male genitalia with a pair of spine-like ventral projections posteriorly on segment IX, the dorsolateral processes from segment IX each with an acute ventral projection, and the phallus simple internally with a short, bifurcate apical sclerite. In addition, we describe the female of Byrsopteryx espinhosa Harris & Holzenthal, 1994, and record Byrsopteryx abrelata Harris & Holzenthal, 1994, from São Paulo State, Brazil.

Soaresia forficula sp. nov. is described from the Mantiqueira Mountain Range, Minas Gerais State, southeastern Brazil. The genus Soaresia H. Soares, 1945 previously included only Soaresia uncina H. Soares, 1945, hitherto recorded only from the type locality, Penedo, Rio de Janeiro State, in the same mountain range. A second record of S. uncina is given from a nearby locality, Serrinha do Alambari. The combined distribution of the species of Soaresia is restricted to elevations between 700 and 1300 m, in the Tropical & Subtropical Moist Broadleaf Forests biome. An emended diagnosis of the genus is given and complements are given to the description of S. uncina, including the first illustrations and description of the male genitalia.

Hemipsilichthys nimius, new species, is described from the upper Perequê-Açu River in Parati, in the southern coast of Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil. The new species is distinguished from the remaining 18 Hemipsilichthys species by modally having eight branched rays in the dorsal fin (vs. seven branched rays), by possessing a posteriorly expanded dorsal-fin membrane connecting the last dorsal-fin ray to the dorsum and, except from H. gobio and H. papillatus, by having teeth cusps equal in size (vs. small lateral cusp or unicuspid teeth in both dentary and premaxilla). From H. gobio and H. papillatus it is further distinguished by the larger orbital diameter and by its V-shaped dorsal-fin spinelet. Hemipsilichthys nimius shares with H. gobio and H. papillatus several characters that might be indicative of close relationships. These putative phylogenetic relationships are discussed.

Four new Brazilian species of Ruppeliana are described and illustrated: R. barbarensis sp. nov., R. grossii sp. nov., R. longiphallus sp. nov., and R. serrana sp. nov., the first from Minas Gerais State and the other three from Rio de Janeiro State. The new taxa can be easily distinguished from other Ruppeliana species by their color pattern and male genitalia morphology. Ruppeliana coronulifera (Stål, 1862) and R. taschenbergi (Berg, 1899) are synonymized with R. signiceps (Stål, 1862). Additionally, a diagnosis of the genus and a key to species are provided.

A new species of Archisotoma Linnaniemi, 1912 is described and illustrated based on material from littoral sand of Praia do Sossego beach, Niterói municipality, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. The new species Archisotoma arariboia sp.nov., the second of the genus described from Brazil, can be distinguished from its congeners by a set of characters: 6+6 eyes, maxillary capitulum unidentate and subequal to internal lamellae, 10 posterior chaetae on manubrium, 4–5 chaetae between the anterior trichobothria and lastly by 1 thick and curved chaetae on trochanter and femur of leg III and 1–2 on femur and 1–2 on tibiotarsus of leg I.
