Poeciloderrhis aureolatus sp. nov. is similar to Poeciloderrhis proxima (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1865) in coloration (both shiny brown). The new species might be distinguished from P. proxima by its tergal modification (the second abdominal segment bears two lateral humps followed by two at middle of plate in P. aureolatus sp. nov. while P. proxima have two lateral humps followed by two at middle of plate, being that second elevation of the middle of the plate ends in a hook-like structure) and shape of the genital parts (right phallomere with small short apex in P. aureolatus sp. nov., while P. proxima have right phallomere with rounded apex). Besides that, pre-apical region in P. aureolatus sp. nov. have an expansion, which is absent in P. proxima.	en	Silva, Leonardo de Oliveira Cardoso da, Lopes, Sonia Maria (2018): Six new species of Poeciloderrhis from Brazil (Blattaria: Blaberidae) with a new record and a new combination.

Maxillary palps with first and second segments reduced, third segment larger than fourth, and fifth segment slightly more dilated and densely tomentose. Thorax. Pronotum ample, convex, with angles curved, base bearing small median projection. Legs with femur I with anteroventral surface bearing 3 – 4 strong spines up to median region, followed by series of small spines toward apex; apex with two strong apical spines; posteroventral surface with three strong spines, one apical; femora II and III bearing few strong spines on ventral surface.

Right phallomere with curved apex and small spine near apex (Fig. 69). Material examined. Holotype male, BRAZIL, Rio de Janeiro State, Itamanjuba, 09 - IX- 1981, Reys & Santos cols, MNRJ. Etymology. The species penduloides, derived from to the pendulum-shaped apex of the median sclerite of the male. Remarks. Poeciloderrhis penduloides sp. nov. is similar to Poeciloderrhis tijucana Silva & Lopes, 2015 in the coloration (light brown and semi-transparent in both). The new species might be distinguished from P. tijucana by its smaller size 26.9 mm (33.0 mm in P. tijucana) and pigmentation of the tegmen (P. penduloides sp. nov. bears small light brown spots, while P. tijucana have bigger spots), tergal modification (P. tijucana bears two latero-apical elevations converging toward thorax on first segment, while P. penduloides sp. nov. bears tree humped structures). Besides that, the new species might be also distinguished by the shape of genital parts that presents a clubbed-like median sclerite (in P. tijucana the structure have a rounded finger-shaped apex). New combination We analyzed the type material of Poeciloderrhis bicolorata Rocha e Silva Albuquerque & Lopes, 1977, and determined that it must be transferred to Epilampra. The specimens do not have the tergal modification and configuration of the genital pieces typical of Poeciloderrhis, with the right phallomere having a complete hook and the median sclerite with an accessory sclerite, termed the dorsal sclerite (Rocha e Silva Albuquerque and Lopes 1977: 509 – 510 figs 31 – 37). Thus the valid name is Epilampra bicolorata (Rocha e Silva Albuquerque & Lopes, 1977).	en	Silva, Leonardo de Oliveira Cardoso da, Lopes, Sonia Maria (2018): Six new species of Poeciloderrhis from Brazil (Blattaria: Blaberidae) with a new record and a new combination.
