The stoneflies of the family Gripopterygidae have a Gondwanan distribution (Australian, Neotropical, and Andean regions) and include about 300 species in five recognized subfamilies. The subfamily Gripopteryginae is restricted to the Neotropics and the Andean regions of South America, including 15 genera and about 80 species. Tupiperla Froehlich, with 20 species, is the largest genus among the South American Gripopteryginae. The genus has been recorded from Brazil, Paraguay, and northeastern Argentina. In Brazil, Tupiperla has been recorded from southern, southeastern, and the mountainous areas of central and northeastern, primarily from streams of the Atlantic Forest. We studied specimens of Tupiperla collected from the Atlantic Forest of southern Brazil. Herein, five new species of Tupiperla are described: T. pinhoi sp. nov., T. serrulata sp. nov., T. pessacqi sp. nov., T. ubuntu sp. nov., and T. zwicki sp. nov.
Gripopterygidae科的石蝇分布于冈瓦纳地区（澳大利亚、新热带区和安第斯地区），在五个公认的亚科中约有300种。Gripopteryginae亚科仅限于新热带区和南美洲的安第斯地区，包括15个属和约80种。Tupiperla Froehlich属有20种，是南美洲Gripopteryginae亚科中最大的属。该属已在巴西、巴拉圭和阿根廷东北部有记录。在巴西，Tupiperla已在南部、东南部以及中部和东北部的山区被记录到，主要来自大西洋森林的溪流。我们研究了从巴西南部大西洋森林采集的Tupiperla标本。在此描述了Tupiperla属的五个新物种：T. pinhoi sp. nov.、T. serrulata sp. nov.、T. pessacqi sp. nov.、T. ubuntu sp. nov.和T. zwicki sp. nov.
