名

Microlepidogaster arachas Martins, Calegari & Langeani, 2013

• Holotype: DZSJRP 2999.
• Paratypes: many, depostited at AMNH, DZSJRP, LBP, MNRJ, MZUSP, and MCP.

Type locality: Brazil, Minas Gerais State, stream at Sacramento Municipality, tributary to rio Araguari at road from Sacramento to Araxá, rio Paranaíba drainage, upper rio Paraná basin, 19°49'11"S, 47°16'0"W [1].

Etymology: The specific epithet arachas is a reference to the native people Arachás who once lived in the area drained by the rio Araguari (rio das Velhas), type-locality of the new species, and were exterminated by the Caiapós in 1750s. In the Tupi language Araxá means high place where sun can be seen first, thus Arachás were the ones that inhabited the highlands of southeastern Minas Gerais State.
