Material examined: 31.07.2023, rainforest at the estuary of Mahury River, from dry vegetation, N04 51 55.5 W52 15 10.0, 6 m a. s. l., 1 ♂, 1 ♀ GoogleMaps .
Remark: First record of this genus for French Guiana.
The finding of many species considered as Oriental in Africa ( Georgiev 2022, 2023a, b), and now in South America, calls into question on their origin. Many of them were probably widely transported by the transfer of seedlings for the plantations, fruits, vegetables and other similar products. The actual origin of many tropical species could now be considered as questionable.
