Material examined. Paraguay: 1 ♂ , San Pedro, [Estancia] Carumbé , 10.i–10.ii.1973, Col. R. Golbach ( MZUSP) .

Comments. This male specimen compared to the male syntypes from Bolivia only differ in the size of the semitranslucent areas over the abdomen. The whitish spot on tergites 2–3 is larger in our specimen from Paraguay, while it is slender in one syntype for which a dorsal image is available ( Fachin et al. 2021: 7, fig. 1).
