Description
Summary:Eight new species of Embioptera from Brazil are described, diagnosed, and illustrated. For Anisembiidae: Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, ; Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, For Archembiidae: Szumik, ; Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, ; Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, , Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, ; Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, For Clothodidae: Szumik, Pereyra & Juárez, To clarify the higher classification of the Order and to have an accurate taxonomy, a species catalog and introduction to the four families present in Brazil is also detailed, including phylogenetic relationships, taxonomic actions, composition, distributions, and records maps. Herein, several taxonomic acts are proposed: (1) the synonymy of Ross (= Ross ; = Ross ; = Ross, ; = Ross, ) and Davis (= Ross, ). (2) new status and delimitation for family Archembiidae Ross, ; subfamily Archembiinae Ross, ; subfamily Pachylembiinae ; subfamily Scelembiinae , and their genera included. (3) (Ross) (Teratembiidae) , and (4) new locality records for previously cited species in the region.
