Material examined

Paráı Altamira: 1♀ ı Leonardo da Vinci caveı 17 December 2010ı leg. ME Bichuetteı DM Schimonsky and JE Gallão (LES 6307); 13ı 1♀ ı Sugiro-Roncador caveı 13 December 2010ı leg. ME Bichuetteı DM Schimonsky and JE Gallão (LES: 6301ı 1 3 6305) .

Distribution

Leonardoscia hassalli was originally described from Leonardo da Vinci cave (Campos- Filho et al. 2014). The present study extends the distribution of this species for Sugiro Roncadorı Altamiraı state of Pará.

Remarks

Based on the reduced number of ommatidia and absence of body pigmentsı allied with the occurrence only inside in Leonardo da Vinci caveı L. hassalli was at first considered troglobitic (Campos-Filho et al. 2014). The new record presented hereı Sugiro-Roncador caveı suggests that the species probably is troglophilicı instead of troglobitic. Subterranean dispersion between the Leonardo da Vinci (type-locality) and Sugiro- Roncador caves is very improbableı because both caves are far from each other and isolated by the Xingu River (CPRM 2015).
