We describe, illustrate and compare three new Brazilian species of Senegalia from the Atlantic Forest domain: Senegalia atlantica, from Rio de Janeiro State; Senegalia rafinesqueana, from the state of Paraná; and Senegalia cupuliformis, from Bahia State. These species are morphologically most similar to S. tenuifolia and S. multipinnata, S. velutina, and S. kuhlmannii, respectively. Additionally, we provide an identification key to all Senegalia species that are morphologically similar to S. atlantica, S. rafinesqueana and S. cupuliformis and occur in the Atlantic Forest domain; we also provide comments on the geographic distribution and the flowering and fruiting period of S. atlantica, S. rafinesqueana and S. cupuliformis.

Ochrotrichia, with about 160 extant species in the New World, is the most diverse genus assigned to the Ochrotrichiinae. Despite its diversity, only eight species were previously recorded from Brazil, only one from Rio de Janeiro state. In this paper, we describe three new species from Parque Nacional da Tijuca, an Atlantic Forest area at Rio de Janeiro. Ochrotrichia nematomorpha sp. nov. is placed within the O. xena Group, having a plate-like tergum X, with an unusual phallus which is slender and pointed apically. Ochrotrichia sagitta sp. nov. and O. taunay sp. nov. belong to the O. aldama Group, each having a divided tergum X, but being distinguished from the others in this group by the arrowhead-like apex of left lateral process of tergum X (O. sagitta) and the presence of two dorsal spine-like projections on tergum X (O. taunay). Furthermore, O. caatinga Souza, Santos & Takiya, 2014 is reported for the first time from Rio de Janeiro state.

Four new Brazilian species of Ruppeliana are described and illustrated: R. barbarensis sp. nov., R. grossii sp. nov., R. longiphallus sp. nov., and R. serrana sp. nov., the first from Minas Gerais State and the other three from Rio de Janeiro State. The new taxa can be easily distinguished from other Ruppeliana species by their color pattern and male genitalia morphology. Ruppeliana coronulifera (Stål, 1862) and R. taschenbergi (Berg, 1899) are synonymized with R. signiceps (Stål, 1862). Additionally, a diagnosis of the genus and a key to species are provided.

A new species of Eugenia from Atlantic forest of Rio de Janeiro State is described, illustrated, and discussed. Eugenia circumdata is characterized by its inflorescences with tomentose, brown-yellowish indumentum, bracteoles orbiculate or obovate, concave, surrounding the flower bud, and deciduous at anthesis. Eugenia circumdata is most similar to Eugenia myrobalana, from which it differs mainly by its smaller leaf blades, axillary inflorescences, and shorter pedicels. Moreover, the species described here is known only from collections in Reserva Biológica União, in the municipality of Rio das Ostras. Data on its conservation status are presented.
