Abstract
The Andean genera Lurama Schaus, 1928 and Ulmara Schaus, 1928 are revised. Lurama poses difficulty for revision due to lost male genitalia of the types of both described species. Ulmaraconjunctasp. n., Ulmaraazurulasp. n., and Ulmaradombroskieisp. n. are described as new in the genus Ulmara. A lectotype is designated for Luramaquindiuna Schaus, 1928 and Ulmararotunda (Dognin, 1916). A new monotypic genus, Cunicumaragen. n., which is externally similar to Ulmara, is described to include the new species Cunicumaraanaesp. n. from low elevations of Bolivia and Paraguay. Male genital morphology does not support a close association of Cunicumara with Lurama or Ulmara. The latter two genera, however, are closely related based on similarities of male genitalia and biogeography.
