Tavares et al.( BIOTA-FAPESP) ( MZUSP, ZMBN).  Diagnostic characters:The male can be separated from all other members of the genus by having bare wing membrane and squama with few setae; acrostichals starting in front, anterior ones hair-like, posterior ones scalpellate; virga well developed; anal point nearly parallel-sided with blunt apex, with weak lateral setae; and inferior volsella consisting of triangular, pointed lobe. The pupa differs from that of other known species by having antennal sheath with pearl row and thorn-like anal macrosetae less than half as long as the male gonopodal sheaths. The larva has mentum with 5 lateral teeth and antennal blade subequal in length to flagellum.   Remarks:This species is rather variable in the shape of the inferior volsella, with some specimens having an extremely long volsella, almost reaching the tip of gonostylus; the anal point also varies in shape and size, but is always parallel-sided with weak, lateral setae.   Distribution:The species occurs all along the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, from Santa Catarinain the south north up to Sergipeon the northeastern coast.
