Material examined. Brazil • Acre, Porto Acre , HFR; 09°45′03″S, 067°40′22″W; 02.XII.2018; V. Souza leg.; 1, UFAC 1030 GoogleMaps .

Identification. Simone (2006) considered P. pentadinus d’Orbigny, 1835 as a separate species, but it has long been considered a synonym of P. floccosus ( Weyrauch 1967; Breure and Mogollón Avila 2016). As such, the locality Guajará-Açu, a waterfall in Rondônia state, re- ported by Simone (2006) should be added to the other geographic distribution of P. floccosus in Brazil. Given the overall distribution of this species, its occurrence in Acre was completely expected.

Type locality. Forests in southern part of the North Region of Brazil.

Distribution. Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Amazonas and Rondônia states in Brazil ( Breure and Mogollón Avila 2016).
