Material examined. BRAZIL. Amazonas: Coari, Urucu river basin at Base Operacional Geólogo Pedro de Moura ( BOGPM), 21–28.IX.2004, on bovine lung, leg. M.C. Esposito (1 ♂, MPEG) . Maranhão: Caxias , 29.VII.2010, leg. J.O.A. Silva (3 ♀♀, MPEG) .

Distribution in Brazil. Amazonas, Distrito Federal, Goiás, Maranhão, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, Pará, Pernambuco, São Paulo.

Remarks. See remarks under P. (S.) ingens . This species has been sporadically collected in the Brazilian Amazon, and Esposito & Linhares (2002) collected only three specimens in the primary forest of Caxiuanã National Forest, Melgaço Municipality, Pará. Peckia (Squamatodes) trivittata is mostly associated with open and dry environments such as the Cerrado (savanna-like) vegetation, where it is a common species ( Lopes 1973; Barros et al. 2008).
