Etymology.
Species named after Joseph Francisco Zikán (1881–1949), a Czech entomologist who greatly contributed to the knowledge of the Brazilian insect fauna in the first half of the last century. Zikán conducted expeditions to collect insects in several localities of the Atlantic Forest, mainly in the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia (Itatiaia National Park) area, where he worked as a naturalist for many years. During his lifetime, Zikán assembled large collections, mainly Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, and Hymenoptera, which are now housed at the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz (IOC) (
Rio de Janeiro
).

Diagnosis
. This species is distinguished from
Bambuina bambui
by the following characters: proximal part of males FWs folded, metanotal glandular structures absent. Male: FWs shorter than
B. bambui
, not surpassing the posterior margin of first abdominal tergite, without longitudinal vein; PsP1 inner margin short, outer margin elongated, pointed; PsP2 less developed. Female: copulatory papilla rounded, proximal margin flattened, with central, distal protuberance rounded.
