Badister (Badister) amazonussp. n. is described from Perú, Loreto, 1.0 km SW Boca del Rio Samiria, Vigilante Post 1, 130m, "04°40.5'S, 074°18.9'W" its type locality. It is known also from two other localities in Loreto Department, Perú, in both the Varzea and Igapó river systems. This new species is sufficiently different that a new informal higher taxon, the amazonus species complex, is recognized. An updated key to the Western Hemisphere species of subgenus Badister is provided.
亚马逊巴迪斯特步甲(Badister (Badister) amazonussp. n.)是根据秘鲁洛雷托省西南1公里处的里奥萨米里亚河口、治安岗哨1、海拔130米(南纬04°40.5',西经074°18.9')的模式产地描述的。在秘鲁洛雷托省的另外两个地方,即várzea和Igapó河系中也发现过该物种。这个新物种差异显著,因此确认了一个新的非正式高级分类单元——亚马逊物种复合体。本文还提供了西半球巴迪斯特亚属物种的最新检索表。
