Abstract

Three species of Prothysana Walker, 1855, are recognized,  one of them, from Brazil, described as new: P. felderi (Druce, 1887); P. magna Becker & Orlandin, sp. nov., and P. terminalis Walker, 1855. Diagnosis, key, and illustrations of both the adults and the genitalia are presented to enable their recognition.
