Figs 3–4 View FIGURES 1–6 , 16–25 View FIGURES 16–25
Diagnosis. Pygofer, in lateral view ( Fig. 18 View FIGURES 16–25 ), with ventral margin widely excavated with apical rounded lobe, dorsoapical margin expanded dorsoposteriorly and curved ventrally at apex, inner caudal process ( Figs 18–19 View FIGURES 16–25 ) adjacent to posterior margin and surpassing the ventral margin, apical portion of process with several rugosity; subgenital plates, in ventral view ( Fig. 21 View FIGURES 16–25 ), subtriangular, broad in basal half and distinctly narrowed in apical half, apical two-thirds of inner margin with about 30 teeth approximately regular in size; aedeagus ( Figs 24–25 View FIGURES 16–25 ) with shaft compressed on apical third, subapical processes very short, spine-like.
Measurements (mm). Male holotype: total length 7.6.
Coloration. Body yellow ( Figs 3–4 View FIGURES 1–6 ), green in life. Crown ( Fig. 3 View FIGURES 1–6 ) with four orange stripes, three longitudinal and one transverse forming E-shaped macula, longitudinal strips extending to mesonotum. Face ( Fig. 16 View FIGURES 16–25 ) with frons orange. Forewing ( Fig. 17 View FIGURES 16–25 ) semi-hyaline, anal margin and adjacent portion dark yellow.
External morphology. External morphological characters as in generic description.
Male terminalia. Pygofer, in lateral view ( Fig. 18 View FIGURES 16–25 ), subtrapezoidal, longer than high; ventral margin widely excavated, apical portion, slightly expanded, forming rounded lobe; dorsoapical margin expanded dorsoposteriorly, curved ventrally at apex; few short setae scattered dorsoapically; inner caudal process adjacent to posterior margin and surpassing ventral margin, in posterior view ( Fig. 19 View FIGURES 16–25 ), process approximately straight and expanded basally, apex rugose. Subgenital plates, in lateral view ( Fig. 20 View FIGURES 16–25 ) approximately 6.5 times longer than maximum height; not tapered towards apex; in ventral view ( Fig. 21 View FIGURES 16–25 ), each plate subtriangular, broad in basal half and distinctly narrowed in apical half; apical two-thirds of inner margin with about 30 teeth approximately regular in size; apex subacute. Connective ( Fig. 22 View FIGURES 16–25 ) approximately two-thirds length of style. Aedeagus, in lateral view ( Fig. 24 View FIGURES 16–25 ), tubular on basal two-thirds and flattened dorsoventrally on apical third; in caudal view ( Fig. 25 View FIGURES 16–25 ), shaft compressed on apical third; subapical processes very short; apex rounded. Anal tube ( Fig. 18 View FIGURES 16–25 ) with tergite X four times longer than wide.
Female terminalia. Female unknown.

Etymology. Species named in honor of the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA), a major contributor to the study of tropical biology with important contributions to studies of insect biodiversity over the past several decades, which has greatly contributed to the training in entomology provided to the authors of this paper.
Remarks. Rosalydia inpa gen. et sp. nov. resembles R. alvarengai gen. et sp. nov. by the long length of caudal process of pygofer ( Figs 8 View FIGURES 7–15 , 18 View FIGURES 16–25 ); subgenital plates with all teeth of inner margin approximately the same size ( Figs 11 View FIGURES 7–15 , 21 View FIGURES 16–25 ); and aedeagus unexpanded on basal third ( Figs 14 View FIGURES 7–15 , 24 View FIGURES 16–25 ). Also, R. inpa gen. et sp. nov. resembles R. xavieri gen. et sp. nov. by pygofer with dorsoapical margin expanded dorsoposteriorly and curved ventrally at apex ( Figs 18 View FIGURES 16–25 , 28 View FIGURES 26–36 ). However, R. inpa gen. et sp. nov. is mainly distinguished from other species by ventral margin of pygofer widely excavated with apical rounded lobe ( Fig. 18 View FIGURES 16–25 ).
