Geographical records. Here in, we provide new records for Acre, Maranhão (Amazon rainforest) and EspÍrito Santo (Atlantic rainforest) ( Fig. 1E View Figure 1 ).

Remarks. Some females analyzed show different size and color pattern (mainly in the hindwings) ( Figs. 1A, 1B, 1C View Figure 1 ). Variation like those was mentioned by Johnson & Musetti (1999), who verified that they are intraspecific. Although the material analyzed comes from entomological collections, which receive deposits of a large volume of specimens of insects from different projects, few specimens are present in these collections (01 IBCBE, 26 INPA, 01 LRRP and 21 UFES). According to Lara & Perioto (2014), for a more robust sampling, long-term studies and successive sampling can be an effective strategy to collect P. polyturator . With Malaise traps surveys, some long-term sampling in the same sampling area proved to be effective for capturing uncommon Hymenoptera families, such as Chrysididae , Dryinidae , Monomachidae and Sclerogibbidae ( Lucena et al. 2012; Versuti et al. 2014; Perioto et al. 2016; Fernandes et al. 2017).
