Here is a partial excerpt from Chapter 4 of More Guitar Chords and Accompaniment.

__________________________________________________________  

The accompaniment styles shown here exemplify somse of the popular Latin and Brazilian musical styles: reggae, beguine, rhumba, mambo, samba/bossa nova. You will first see some basic patterns typical to each style followed by a sample of music. Use any chord you like to play each pattern. As you will notice, each pattern is not entirely new to you. It may be a pattern that combines different patterns you learned. Or one may be a simple variation of a pattern you saw in Guitar Chords and Accompaniment. If you have some difficulty playing a pattern, clap the rhythm first and then play one measure at a time very slowly. Watch out especially for those examples with ties and accents. At the end, there is a chord progression for you to practice by filling out each chord form and writing out any pattern you like.

SAMBA/BOSSA NOVA
Samba and bossa nova are the two most popular and influential music styles that originate from Brazil. Typically they are played with fingers as shown in the example. This style has been widely adapted to other music styles such as rock, adult contemporary pop, and jazz.
