    Trichomyia (Septemtrichomyia) pedrabranquensis Bravo Trichomyia pedrabranquensis Bravo, 2001 b: 131 –132, Figs. 24–28. Comments. Bravo (2001 b) described Trichomyia pedrabranquensis based only on the holotype male; the elongate bristles on tergum 7 were not mentioned. These structures were lost in the holotype, but examinations of new specimens from the type locality and from Coração de Maria showed that elongate bristles are present on tergum 7. Bravo (2001 b) misinterpreted the position of the gonostylus in this species, similar to the misinterpretation of the species originally described in Septemtrichomyia. T. pedrabranquensis can be recognized by its short ejaculatory apodeme in dorsal view, 0.5 times the length of gonostylus, by the presence of a row of rod-like setae on the distal margins of the gonocoxites, by the wide apex of the gonostylus, not ending in acute apex, and by the triangular and wide parameres.

Male terminalia (Figs. 16–19): gonostyle with pointed apex having same length as gonocoxite. Epandrium rectangular with central aperture. Sternite 10 wider distally. Cercus with 2 tenacula with rounded tips, 1 apical and the other subapical. Parameres triangular and curved, ½ length of aedeagus. Aedeagus symmetrical, same length as aedeagal apodeme. Aedeagal apodeme wider in posterior 2 / 3; anterior 1 / 3 very thin. Female. Unknown. Distribution Brazil, Bahia, Serra da Jibóia, Cachoeira, Ituberá. Comments The two new species of Philosepedon were collected in the wet forests of the Atlantic Coastal Rain Forest of Bahia in northeastern Brazil. These two new species from Brazil, with two tenacula on the cercus, are different from the two southern Brazilian species of Philosepedon (Ph. plaumanni and Ph. spathipenis), which have only one tenaculum on the cercus. Philosepedon uncinatum sp. nov. was collected at various localities in the Atlantic Rain Forest of Bahia, except from southern Bahia, while Ph. oblongolum sp. nov. was collected only from southern Bahia (Porto Seguro and Jussarí). The two new species are morphologically similar and are probably related. These new species can be distinguished from the other species of Philosepedon by the presence of 13 flagellomeres with the 11 th and 12 th fused, the oval apical enlargement of R 2 and M 3, an incomplete M 2, and two tenacula on the cercus. Likewise, Ph. uncinatum sp. nov. can be distinguished from Ph. oblongolum sp. nov. because the apices of the parameres of the former reach only to the middle of the aedeagus, whereas the apices of the parameres of Ph. oblongolum sp. nov. almost reach the apex of the aedeagus. No known species of Philosepedon has been described with this oval apical enlargement of the R 2 and M 3 veins; these characteristics could be a synapomorphy of these new Brazilian species. The New Guinea species Ph. torosa Quate & Quate and Ph. pectinata Quate & Quate have a similarly enlarged vein area, but this enlargement is near the center of R 2 + 3 and in the base of M 4. Only one previously described species of Philosepedon, Ph. aliciae Ibáñez­Bernal & Cáceres, has a cercus with 2 tenacula and 13 flagellomeres, but it differs from the two new species from Brazil by the foliar arms of the ascoids, and by the separated flagellomeres 11 and 12.
