Cendiuna Galileo & Martins, 1991 is a genus of the tribe Hemilophini known from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, and currently comprising five species. The genus is mainly diagnosed by having the pronotum depressed at the mid-posterior region, and elytra slightly widened toward apical region, with light dense pubescence laterally. Besides that, its species present patterns of firefly-like coloration. Herein, we describe Cendiuna migueli sp. nov. from the state of Paraná (Brazil). Additionally, we provide a new record of Cendiuna puranga Galileo & Martins, 1991 from Paraná and point out new variations in the species.
