Paramaka sp.

Distribution. Brazil (Tocantins).

Material examined. BRAZIL, Tocantins, Pedro Afonso, rio Sono , 9°3’49”S / 48°6’15”W, white sheet light trap, 11-12.x.2018, Krolow, T GoogleMaps . K. and team cols. (1♂, CEUFT) .

Remarks. This morphospecies is in the process of description by one of us (FFS). Only one specimen was found on the samples. Although the shape of the styliger plate resembles Paramaka pearljam Mariano 2011 , the projection (sharp on Paramaka sp. versus curved apically on P. pearljam ), the general color, the pattern of spots on the abdomen, and the proportion between penes lobes/styliger plate (2/3 the length on Paramaka sp. versus 3/2 the length on P. pearljam ) are different from P. pearljam . Additionally, this specimen appears to be very close to the Paramaka sp. mentioned by Lima et al. (2016) from the state of Bahia. It was found in only one site, in an area with Cerrado influence.
