Abstract
Adelopsis miguelmonnei Gomyde & Gnaspini sp. nov. is described from the Brazilian Amazon and placed in the ascutellaris species group. This species is remarkable for its minute size and for being the first of the group described from northern Brazil. Morphological analyses highlight the difficulty in delimiting species and the need for a future taxonomic revision of this group.
