Abstract:—Problems related to the true identity of At cantarea geniculata were brought up in the first article of this series (Leme, 1995). This species is often confused with A. regina — also a poorly known taxon — and furthermore, a morphologically distinct taxon has been ob served, with a well defined geographic distri bution, which represented a discordant en tity within the A. geniculata nomenclatural group
