Nothepyris Evans, 1973 is revised. Six species are recognised, two being previously described species, Nothepyris brasiliensis Evans, 1973 and Nothepyris pretiosus Colombo & Azevedo, 2019, and four species described and illustrated as new, Nothepyris beedrill sp. nov., Nothepyris combee sp. nov., Nothepyris durant sp. nov. and Nothepyris vespiquen sp. nov. The species Nothepyris sulcatus (Azevedo, 1999) syn. nov. is proposed as a junior synonym of Nothepyris brasiliensis. For the first time, males of this genus are described, and the morphology of the male genitalia is compared and discussed with other Scleroderminae. An updated taxonomic key to all species for both sexes is presented.
