    Poxyaibamberus Andersen & Dantas, gen. nov. is erected based on the males of two species, P. jamanximensis Andersen & Dantas, sp. nov. from Jamanxim National Park, Pará State, Brazil, and P. ubajarensis Andersen & Dantas, sp. nov. from Ubajara National Park, Ceará State, Brazil. Both species have a comparatively short and wide head, with large eyes and short, five-segmented palps; a strong subapical seta on the ultimate flagellomere; scalpellate acrostichals; no setae on the wing veins except for one seta on the brachiolum; a long costal extension; and a large triangular anal point and a very long heel on the gonostylus. The systematic position of the new genus is briefly discussed

Unknown.</p> <p> <b>Taxonomy.</b> Recent studies and a redescription of <i>Tanytarsus hastatus</i> have supported its exclusion from the <i>riopreto</i> group (Dantas <i>et al.</i> 2022), as formerly proposed. However, indications of known species sufficiently close to be considered as relatives at the group level have so far remained problematic. <i>Tanytarsus frameatus</i>, described above, fits into this gap in knowledge and together with <i>T. hastatus</i> forms a species couple that is proposed as a separate group here. Both species share several features defined as key for the group (see the group diagnosis), and some characters clearly show they are distinct species. These are: relatively small frontal tubercles in <i>T. frameatus</i> (vs. large in <i>T. hastatus</i>), vestigial lateral teeth of the anal tergite (vs. large), just over a dozen of spinulae (vs. 2 or 3 dozens of spinulae), heart-shaped superior volsella with an evenly concave median margin (vs. round, deeply concave), stem of median volsella simple (vs. swollen apically) (cf. Fig. 7 and Sublette & Sasa 1994, Sanseverino 2006, Dantas <i>et al.</i> 2022).</p> <p> <b>Geographical distribution and bionomics.</b> <i>Tanytarsus frameatus</i> is known only from the type locality in the highlands of the Amazonian Forest in Peru (Fig. 1A, B). The adult male specimens examined were obtained along with those of four other species described in the present paper.

Gonostylus 46–50 μm long, slightly swollen at mid length, evenly tapering toward blunt apex. HR 1.30–1.40, HV 4.06–4.67.</p> <p>Female and immature stages. Unknown.</p> <p> <b>Taxonomy.</b> The male of <i>Tanytarsus pinedoi</i> is characterized by a unique hypopygium structure, the comparison of which with those of other known <i>Tanytarsus</i> is limited to species with a slender anal point without crests and/or spinulae, or other structures typical of the genus (Fig. 5). Among the Neotropical <i>Tanytarsus</i>, a similar anal point is known in <i>T. fastigatus</i> Reiss, 1972 (but broader in distal half), <i>T. hirsutus</i> Trivinho-Strixino, Wiedenbrug <i>et</i> da Silva, 2015 (parallel-sided), <i>T. jatai</i> Trivinho-Strixino, Wiedenbrug <i>et</i> da Silva, 2015 (with minute subapical triangular protrusions), <i>T. obiriciae</i> Trivinho-Strixino <i>et</i> Sonoda, 2006 (broadened in distal half), <i>T. reissi</i> Paggi, 1992 (triangular at tip), <i>T. sanseverinoi</i> Dantas, Amat, Hamada <i>et</i> Giłka, 2022 (nearly identical with <i>T. pinedoi</i>), <i>T. tuberculatus</i> Reiss, 1972 (with vestigial crests or flap-like enlargements), and in species of the <i>impar</i> group (but shorter, broader or with narrow crest) (Reiss 1972, Paggi 1992, Trivinho-Strixino & Strixino 2004, Trivinho-Strixino & Sonoda 2006, Trivinho-Strixino <i>et al.</i> 2015, Dantas & Giłka 2017, Dantas <i>et al.</i> 2022). The simple (bare) and slender anal point, but with round apex, we also describe in other new species here (see <i>T. kaxinawa</i>). None of the species compared here has characters in a combination given in the diagnosis of <i>T. pinedoi</i> (see above). Apart from the unique anal point structure, the species is distinct in having the superior volsella with its posteriomedian part truncate, curved posteriorly or posterolaterally, and the digitus, basally broad but short.</p> <p> <b>Geographical distribution and bionomics.</b> <i>Tanytarsus pinedoi</i> is known only from the type locality in the highlands of the Amazonian Forest in Peru (Fig. 1A, B). The adult male specimens examined were obtained along with those of four other species described in the present paper. For further information on the ecology and bionomics refer to the notes on <i>Tanytarsus aries</i> (above).</p>Published as part of <i>Dantas, Galileu P.

    A utiliza??o de compostos org?nicos produzidos a partir de res?duos org?nicos gerados nas resid?ncias ? uma forma de reciclagem da mat?ria org?nica, devolvendo ao solo de forma mais r?pida, os nutrientes essenciais para plantas, tornando um aliado na recupera??o, manuten??o da fertilidade dos solos e diminui??o da quantidade de res?duos jogados nos lix?es. Este trabalho objetivou a divulga??o ? sociedade da import?ncia e dos benef?cios evidenciados por meio de algumas pr?ticas ambientais como a produ??o de compostos org?nicos a partir de res?duos gerados na sede da filarm?nica bem como em algumas resid?ncias dos integrantes. O processo de compostagem ? realizado nas intermedia??es do pr?dio da banda de m?sica, no munic?pio de Carna?ba dos Dantas, utilizando cascas de frutas, verduras, cascas de ovo, p? de caf? e podas de ?rvores, resultando em um composto org?nico que ? essencial na reposi??o de nutrientes para o solo e para as plantas. O resultado do trabalho desenvolvido pela filarm?nica mostrou que pr?ticas de sustentabilidade como esta, apesar de simples, traz benef?cios in?meros, al?m de servir como exemplos a outros setores que desejam inserir essas experi?ncias exitosas em seus espa?os
