A new species of Nadleria from the western edge of the Amazon Basin, in southeastern Peru, is here described. It is close to N. mockfordi and it is the second species of the genus known from both sexes; the male of the new species can be separated from the male of N. gamma on details of terminalia, particularly of the epiproct, clunium and phallosome. The types are deposited in the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.
