Material examined. 1 Ƌ (left wing slide mounted; terminalia in vial): BRAZIL, State of Minas Gerais, Cabo Verde, Fazenda da Cata— 593m, 21º27’8.46”S 46º20’52.8”W, 14.vii.2011 – 04.i.2012, Malaise barranco, Amorim, D. S. & Oliveira, S. S. cols. ( MZUSP).

Comments. This species was previously known from the type locality, in northeastern Argentina, and from specimens collected by Fritz Plaumann in the State of Santa Catarina, southern Brazil. We add here a new record of the species for the southern part of the State of Minas Gerais, with quite higher altitude, a locality that shares a number of elements of the Santa Catarina fauna. The original description and the redescriptions made by Vilela & Bächli (1990) and Grimaldi & Nguyen (1999) are very complete and well illustrated. We include here photos of the second male ever reported, including the amazing male terminalia of the species.
