Specimen examined: Colombia: Meta: San Martín, Rey Zamuro, II-2012, J. Noriega, trampa de luz (1 ♀ -CAUD).
Comments: After the finding of a female specimen collected in the Colombian department of Meta, we concluded that it can confidentially be assigned to the genus Fillus . The specimen perfectly matches to the description and illustrations of Machado & Rafael (2011), however because only a single female is available, we cannot assign this specimen to any of the known species.
The specimen reported herein presents short antennae with apical club piriform ( Fig. 1C View Figure 1 ), similar to that of F. amazonicus ; compound eyes have a shallow median depression ( Fig. 1A View Figure 1 ), wings are hyaline with dark brown pterostigma; CuA on the hind wing is present, and the female genital sclerites ( Figs. 1D, E View Figure 1 ) are similar to those illustrated by Machado & Rafael (2011). It is probable that the Colombian specimen be the same described by Machado & Rafael (2011), or alternatively a new species.
