Figures 1–10, 15, 19

Type material. Male holotype from Campo de Provas Brigadeiro Velloso (-9.37333, -55.01944), Serra do Cachimbo, Novo Progresso, Pará, Brazil, 12.IX.2003, D.D. Guimar „es coll., deposited in MPEG (ARA) 36742. Three males and five females paratypes, same data as holotype, A.B. Bonaldo coll., deposited in MPEG (ARA) 001723 .

Etymology. The species name is a noun in apposition that honors the Kayapó indigenous people from the state of Pará. The term “Kayapó” is used by neighboring tribes rather than the Kayapó people themselves, and it means “those who look like monkeys”.

Diagnosis. Males of Bulboctenus kayapo sp. nov. are distinguished from those of the other species of the genus by the apical projection of the MA rounded and smooth, slightly differentiated from the rest of the MA (Figs 10 A–C, 15A–C), by the RTA wider than long (shorter), apically rounded and by the RCP swollen, well-developed (ventral view, Fig. 12A), while B. itunaitata sp. nov. and B. munduruku sp. nov. present smooth RCP, enlarged RTA and well differentiated apical projections of the MA (Figs 12 A–C, 14A–C, 16A–C, 17A–C). Females of Bulboctenus kayapo sp. nov. are distinguished from those of the other species of the genus by the lateral margins of the MS strongly excavated anteriorly, next to the copulatory openings (Figs 10D, 15D) and by the copulatory ducts touching anteriorly (Fig. 10E), while B. itunaitata sp. nov. and B. munduruku sp. nov. present separated copulatory ducts and less excavated lateral margins of the MS (Figs 12 D–E, 14D–E, 16D–E, 17D–E).
