Material examined: Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, Restinga de Jurubatiba National Park, sand beach and litter of “restinga” areas; Silveira, T.C. coll. 17/III/2015: 1 ex. Costa do Sol State Park, sand beach and litter of “restinga” areas; Silveira, T.C. coll. 30/IV/2015 : 18 exs; 22/ V /2015: 3 exs; 16/XI/2015: 7 exs.

Remarks: Rapoportela pitomboi, described from Itatiaia National Park, Minas Gerais State, had already been reported in “Restingas” of Maricá and Marambaia (Fernandes & Mendonça 2004, 2007). The occurrence area of this species was expanded in the littoral of Rio de Janeiro, and it was reported in “resting” areas of Jurutatiba and Costa do Sol. The specimens found in the two “restingas” present a bluish coloration found in specimens from other studies regarding littoral fauna (as in Fernandes & Mendonça 2004, 2007), unlike the pinkish coloration described to the type material.
