Polhemus & Ferreira, 2018 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Hydrometridae) is a monotypic and troglobitic genus, recently described based on material collected in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. From specimens collected in the Gruna do Enfurnado Cave in the Serra do Ramalho karst area, municipality of Coribe, state of Bahia, Brazil, we describe Cordeiro & Moreira, sp. nov. and compare it with Polhemus & Ferreira, 2018. The new species is diagnosed by the general body color being pale-yellow to light-brown; antennal segments I and II being subequal in length; the reduced gular lobe, not covering any labial segment; the male proctiger without apical projections; and the male paramere with convex dorsal margin after the curvature, with a narrow hook-like apex.
波尔赫穆斯氏属与费雷拉氏属(2018年,半翅目:异翅亚目:水黾科)是一个单型且穴居的属,最近根据在巴西米纳斯吉拉斯州采集的材料进行了描述。从在巴西巴伊亚州科里贝市拉马略山喀斯特地区的格鲁纳多恩富尔纳多洞穴中采集的标本,我们描述了新物种科代罗氏与莫雷拉氏属,并将其与2018年的波尔赫穆斯氏属与费雷拉氏属进行比较。新物种的特征为:整体体色为浅黄色至浅棕色;触角第一节和第二节长度大致相等;下咽叶缩小,不覆盖任何唇节;雄性肛尾节无顶端突起;雄性阳茎基侧突在弯曲后背缘凸出,顶端呈狭窄的钩状。
