One female from João Neiva (Espírito Santo State, southeastern Brazil) has the following whitish structures (vs. whitish absent): scutellum, postscutellum, upper division of metapleuron, spot on postero ventral corner of mesopleuron and metapleuron, a mark on propodeum posteriorly, dorsal spot on all coxae, and tergites posteriorly.

Distribution. Brazil (Espírito Santo NR, Minas Gerais, Paraná NR, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Sul NR, Santa Catarina NR, São Paulo) (Fig. 20E). Bootstrap analysis suggests that this species occurs typically between 100–500 m, like most Agonocryptus spp. (Fig. 21G).

Material examined. Total of 22 specimens, 22♀.
