摘要
Athyreus MacLeay, 1819 is one of the most diverse genera within Athyreini, with 45 species in Central and South America; 24 species are recorded from Brazil. Here, we describe a remarkable multi-horned species, Athyreus joseferreirai sp. nov., from Brazil, with illustrations of the male holotype and female paratype and a map of the type locality. The male of A. jose-ferreirai sp. nov. has seven horns on the pronotum, a character not observed in any congener males.
