Imago. Unknown.

Distribution. Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, and Espírito Santo) (Fig. 41).

Comments. This species was also reported from Rio de Janeiro by Salles et al. (2004). However, based on the new evidences presented here, it became clear that these specimens belong to an additional new species. As we only have a single mature nymph in good condition, we refrain from describing this species in the present paper.
