Paprocki& C. Cressa( MIZA, MZUSP, UFSCar, ZMBN).  Diagnostic characters:The male can be separated from all other members of the genus by having 0–3 apical setae on the wing membrane; squama with 1–3 setae; few scalpellate or non-scalpellate acrostichals in mid scutum; virga absent; and inferior volsella large with anterior bare, strongly set off rounded projection and low posterior lobe. The female differs from other known females by having tergite IX undivided, but tergite setae still in two groups. The pupa has thorn-like macrosetae and anal lobe laterally expanded.   Distribution:The species is known from Saint Vincentand Venezuela, and from Santa Catarina, Paraná, São Paulo, and Rio de JaneiroStates in Brazil.
