Abstract Among the few species of Microcambeva reported as occurring in more than one hydrographic basin, M. ribeirae has been previously listed from both the Ribeira de Iguape and the Guaraqueçaba basins. However, morphological and molecular analyses revealed that the specimens from Guaraqueçaba represent a new species, which is described in this ...
