Diagnosis. Length of fore wing 5.30–5.46 mm; occipital carina fading at some point near the middle of gena´s height; gena wide, approximately as wide as lower lobe of eye in lateral view; clypeus wide, with ventral margin acute; humerus short and roundly truncate ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 11–14 ), pronotal carina with lamella reduced; metanotum wider than long, metanotal process short, with apex approximately acute, propodeum with shallow cavity above the valvula ( Fig. 12 View FIGURES 11–14 ), propodeal valvula attenuate ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 11–14 ); paramere dorsally slightly angular. Species black with marks yellow; scutellum with two small spots, metanotum partially yellow ( Fig. 12 and 14 View FIGURES 11–14 ).
Material examined. FRENCH GUIANA: Cayenne , Petit-Saut, 6♀ xii.1997 – i.1998 (A. Dejean) ( AMNH) ; BRAZIL: Pará , 21♀, Melgaço, Caxiuanã-ECFPn, 24.xi.1998 (O. Silveira & J. Pena), 1♀, Belém, Utinga, 12.xii.1978 (F.F. Ramos) ( MPEG) .
Distribution. Brazil: Pará*, Bahia; French Guiana.
Remarks. Protopolybia duckei has its type locality in Bahia, Brazil. Carpenter et al. (2011) revalidated P. duckei based on the external morphology of the female and on the male genitalia, which is different from that of P. emortualis . Furthermore, they recorded this species in French Guiana. Here, we present the first record of this species from the Brazilian Amazon.
