Material examined

Holotype BRAZIL • ♂; “ Rio de Janeiro ”, “Collection \ CF Baker”, “USNMENT \ 01513809”; USNM 1513809.

Other material

BRAZIL – Pernambuco (new record) • 1 ♂; Caruaru; DZUP .

Remarks

This species was described based on a single male from Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil (Fig. 22A–D). We studied an additional male specimen from Pernambuco State (Fig. 22E–F) that leaves no doubt that this species should be transferred to Gypona because of its having the crown with oblique striations between the ocelli (Fig. 25C) and the genitalia and coloration similar to those of several species of Gypona .
