Diagnosis. Crown ( Fig. 3A, C View FIGURE 3 ) with four orange stripes, three longitudinal and one transverse forming E-shaped macula. Forewing ( Fig. 3A–D View FIGURE 3 ) yellow with a brown stripe along the entire anal margin and appendix. Male pygofer ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 ) dorsal margin with an elongated, narrow and acute process, contiguous to the margin, slightly surpassing pygofer apex; ventral margin with a small dentiform apical process. Subgenital plates, in lateral view ( Fig. 1E, H View FIGURE 1 ) surpassing the pygofer apex, narrow at base and widened on apical half; in ventral view ( Fig. 1G View FIGURE 1 ) plates fused together along their entire length, except apically. Connective ( Fig. 1I View FIGURE 1 ) Y-shaped.Aedeagus ( Fig. 1K View FIGURE 1 ) in lateral view with atrium broad bearing an acute, slightly recurved ventral process nearly same size and shape as shaft, fused basally to shaft, expanded subapically in posterior view ( Fig. 1L View FIGURE 1 ); shaft tubular, elongated and narrow, with apex subacute.

Etymology. The species epithet is a noun in apposition based on the Portuguese common name of the tree on which the new species was collected, “Aroeira-Pimenteira.”

Remarks. Coelidiana aroeira sp. nov. resembles Coelidiana brasiliensis and Coelidiana diminuta due to the presence of a single ventral process on the aedeagus but the former differs in having the ventral process of the aedeagus basally fused to the shaft ( Fig. 1K View FIGURE 1 ).
