• Bivibranchia notata is described as new from the lower Rio Tapajos, Brazil. Bivibranchia velox is reported from the lower Rio Xingu, the first citation of the species from the main portion of the Amazon basin. The distribution of B. protractila in the Amazon and variation in the pigmentation of the species in that river system is discussed.
