Type material of the proteocephalidean cestodes Manaosia bracodemoca Woodland, 1935 and Paramonticellia itaipuensis Pavanelli et Rego, 1991 (both monotypic genera) as well as recently collected material of the latter species are redescribed. A close similarity between both species was observed: the shape of scoleces is identical, both possess a globular scolex with hidden suckers, a well-developed circular, horseshoe-shaped musculature surrounding suckers; the measurements of both taxa are also similar (scolex, suckers, young proglottides). Both cestodes possess a medullary ovary crossing the dorsal muscle layer and ending in the dorsal cortex, the testes are in the dorsal cortex and the cortical vitellarium is laterally situated. Both species parasitize the same fish host. Therefore Paramonticellia is considered a junior synonym of Manaosia and Paramonticellia itaipuensis becomes a junior synonym of Manaosia bracodemoca. An emended diagnosis of Manaosia, which is a monotypic genus, is provided.
