摘要

The present paper describes a new species of Actinote Hübner, [1819] (Nymphalidae, Heliconiinae, Acraeini), Actinote palmarina Freitas, Magaldi, Kaminski & Paluch sp. nov., from northeastern Brazil, based on morphological and molecular data. Actinote palmarina sp. nov. is very localized, with only five individuals known from just two localities in the Brazilian states of Alagoas and Pernambuco. Larvae feed on Mikania hirsutissima DC. (Asteraceae) and larvae and pupae are distinct from the closely related Actinote melanisans Oberthür, 1917. This new species represents yet another case of butterfly endemism for the Northern Atlantic Forest. In addition, Actinote pellenea nordestina D Almeida, 1935 is here synonymized with Actinote pellenea auloeda Oberthür, 1917 ssp. rev.
