Begonia fimbritepala (Begoniaceae) a new endemic species to the Atlantic Coastal Forest of Brazil is described and illustrated. This species resembles B. olsoniae in occupying the same habitat (rocky slopes and outcrops), and in the shape of the leaf blades and size of male flowers. It differs by glabrous leaves on the adaxial surface, villous abaxial veins with simple trichomes (vs. hispid on both surfaces, squamulose on abaxial veins with fimbriate scales) and tepals with ciliate margins (vs entire to slightly crenulate).

Begonia itaipeensis (Begoniaceae), a new narrow endemic species from the Brazilian Atlantic Coastal Forest is described and illustrated. This species resembles B. friburgensis Brade but is readily distinguished from that species by its rupicolous habit, leaves with long petioles, and transversely ovate leaf blades.

Two new species of terebellid polychaetes are described, from material collected from the intertidal zone to 45 m deep off the State of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil. The thelepodine Pseudostreblosoma brevitentaculatum sp. nov., is characterised by short, distally expanded tentacles, the presence of a mid-ventral lobe on segment 1 and short lateral lobes on segments 2–4, and by the arrangement of branchial filaments. The species is compared to both other known species of the genus. The terebelline Phisidia rubra sp. nov. differs from its congeners by its smaller size, and by having up to four eyespots at each lateral margin of prostomium, close to the mouth, about 5 rows of secondary teeth above uncinial main fang, uncini arranged in double rows on segments 11–20, 14 pairs of notopodia and by anterior segments being dorsally inflated. Phisidia rubra sp. nov. is compared to its closest congeners and a table comparing all known species of Phisidia is provided.

Begonia microinduta, a new species of  Begonia sect. Pritzelia from the Atlantic Coastal Forest of Brazil is described and illustrated with detailed field photographs. This species is similar to B. windischii and B. lorenzii by having three tepals on pistillate flowers, staminate flowers with pilose dorsal surface, short peduncled inflorescences, very short inflorescence ramification and persistent floral bracts. It differs from B. windischii in its petiole indumentum, which is covered with short microscopic trichomes throughout (vs. sparsely pilose in the upper third with villous trichomes, with a trichome necklace at the base of the petiole and in the apex) and differs from B. lorenzii by having microscopic (vs. villous) trichomes, glabrous (vs. pubescent) adaxial leaf surface and glabrous (vs. pubescent) fruits.

Two new species of Begonia (Begoniaceae) from Brazil are described and illustrated. Begonia cunhambebii and Begonia lorenzii are narrow endemic species from Atlantic Coastal Forest, an area full of endemism and with huge species richness. Preliminary IUCN Red List assessments are provided for the species.

Two species of Eugenia from the Brazilian Atlantic coastal forest of Bahia and Espírito Santo are here described. Eugenia atlantica is most similar to E. bahiensis from which differs by its leaf blades usually larger, 80–180 × 35–70 mm, and chartaceous, inflorescence mostly axillary, flower buds with hypanthium costate to slightly costate and calyx lobes completely fused or partially fused along two thirds of the bud length. Eugenia soteriana is related with E. zuccarinii but differs mostly by the leaves with two marginal veins, inflorescence fasciculate more often recovering the vegetative growth by an auxotelic axis, bracteoles larger, 2–6 mm long, deciduous after anthesis, and flowers with larger outermost calyx lobes, 1.5–3 mm long. Descriptions, species distribution, habitat, phenology, vernacular names, illustrations, comparisons to other morphologically similar species, and conservation assessments are also provided.

The Neotropical fauna of Gyponini is very diverse and still poorly known. Many new species have characters that do not fit with the currently recognized genera, which makes it necessary to propose new ones. Herein, we propose two new Brazilian genera of Gyponini: Acuthana gen. nov., based on A. transgressa gen. et sp. nov. from the State of Mato Grosso, Central-West Brazil and Rectapona gen. nov. based on R. nigrifascia gen. et sp. nov. from the states of Paraná and São Paulo, South and Southeast Brazil, respectively. Diagnosis, detailed description and illustrations of male and female are provided for each taxon, as well as comparisons with closely related genera.
