The Neotropical species of the genus Manota Williston are studied, based on material of 146 specimens from French Guiana, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Dominica and the Dominican Republic. Four new species are described, viz. M. corniculata sp. n. (French Guiana), M. pseudocavata sp. n. (French Guiana), M. truuverki sp. n. (French Guiana) and M. vladi sp. n. (Dominican Republic). Manota defecta Williston, 1896, the type species of the genus, is listed from Dominica, representing the first record since its description more than a century ago from a Southern Caribbean Island, St. Vincent. New records of 13 additional species are provided: M. acutistylus Jaschhof \& Hippa, 2005 (Dominica), M. aligera Hippa, Kurina \& S\ä\äksj\ärvi, 2017 (French Guiana), M. digitata Hippa, Kurina \& S\ä\äksj\ärvi, 2017 (French Guiana), M. iota Hippa \& Kurina, 2013 (French Guiana), M. micula Hippa \& Kurina, 2013 (French Guiana), M. nordestina Kurina, Hippa \& Amorim, 2018 (French Guiana), M. parva Jaschhof \& Hippa, 2005 (Nicaragua), M. pauloides Hippa, Kurina \& S\ä\äksj\ärvi, 2017 (Ecuador), M. perplexa Kurina, Hippa \& Amorim, 2017 (Nicaragua), M. rotundistylus Jaschhof \& Hippa, 2005 (Ecuador), M. serrulata Hippa, Kurina \& S\ä\äksj\ärvi, 2017 (French Guiana), M. spinosa Jaschhof \& Hippa, 2005 (French Guiana), M. subaristata Kurina, Hippa \& Amorim, 2017 (Ecuador). The number of Neotropical Manota species has risen to 96.

Two new species, Manota williamsi sp. n. and Manota kerri sp. n., are described from Australia and Papua New Guinea, respectively. The former represents the second Manota species recorded from continental Australia. Characterised by setoseanepisternum and non-setose laterotergite, M. williamsi is similar to M. gemella Hippa, 2007, but the presence of themid tibial organ would group it together with five species from New Zealand. Manota kerri resembles M. alulata Kurina\& Hippa, 2015 in having a bilobed gonostylus and sternite 9 entirely fused with the gonocoxa, but differs by other details of the hypopygium. New records of M. subspathula Hippa, 2007 from Australia and Papua New Guinea, and M. biungulata\ Hippa, 2007, M. evexa Hippa 2007, M. hamulata Colless, 1966, M. perissochaeta Hippa, 2007 and M. serawei Hippa, 2007 from Papua New Guinea are presented.

A total of 286 male specimens of Manota from 38 different collecting sites in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest were analysed. They belong to 32 different species, including 20 described as new to science and 12 recognized as previously described species. The new species are M. abbreviata sp. n., M. atlantica sp. n., M. carioca sp. n., M. cavata sp. n., M. hirta sp. n., M. lamasi sp. n., M. lanei sp. n., M. nordestina sp. n., M. oliveirai sp. n., M. paniculata sp. n., M. papaveroi sp. n., M. periotoi sp. n., M. perparva sp. n., M. pseudoiota sp. n., M. rostrata sp. n., M. sanctavirginae sp. n., M. securiculata sp.n., M. silvai sp. n., M. tavaresi sp. n. and M. unispinata sp. n. The taxonomic context of the newly described species is dis- cussed. Manota palpalis Lane, 1948, the type of which is considered lost, is redescribed and discussed, based on the original description, the original illustrations, and the type-locality. Our specimens of the previously described species belong to M. aligera Hippa, Kurina \& Sääksjärvi, 2017, M. anfracta Hippa \& Kurina, 2013, M. appendiculata Hippa \& Kurina, 2013, M. caribica Jaschhof \& Hippa, 2005, M. diversiseta Jaschhof \& Hippa, 2005, M. micula Hippa \& Kurina, 2013, M. panda Hippa \& Kurina, 2013, M. pustulosa Hippa, Kurina \& Sääksjärvi, 2017, M. quantula Hippa \& Kurina, 2013, M. serrulata Hippa, Kurina \& Sääksjärvi, 2017 and M. subaristata Kurina, Hippa \& Amorim, 2017. Among the species dealt with here, ten have a wide distribution in South America or the Neotropics, six are known from only a single site, nine are widespread along the Atlantic Forest, and seven are known only from southern Brazil/northwestern Argentina. A discrepancy between the distribution patterns of Manota species and the general areas of endemism known for flies in the Atlantic Forest is discussed, and a non-destructive sequencing reverse workflow protocol for Manota specimens proposed.

Including the species described here, the Neotropical region closely approaches the Oriental region in terms of the number of described species (92 and 102, respectively), while the genus now includes 300 species worldwide.
