Diagnosis. Mandible bidentate. Clypeus trapezoidal. Tergal process with very shallow, small and rounded depressions covered with dense tuft of setae directed backward. Hypopygium with dorsal margin straight. Genitalia: paramere with rounded apex with dorsal margin straight; aedeagal ventral ramus slightly shorter than aedeagal dorsal body, sinuous and wide; with apical filament directed outward; aedeagal dorsal body with two pairs of apical lobes; dorsal lobe with filament with sharpened apex, inner surface setose, vertical; ventral lobe longer, membranous, wide with rounded apex in lateral view, surfaces vertical; inner lobe densely setose. Apodeme extending beyond genital ring.

Remarks. This species is known to Costa Rica, Panama, Ecuador, Peru and Brazil ( Amazonas, Acre, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Paraná). Now some specimens are added. Some variations are worth to mention: median clypeal tooth angulate; median clypeal carina straight and complete apically; anterior margin of pronotal disc coarse; tergal process with very shallow depression; paramere short, wider and apical margin straight; basivolsella with a rounded expansion.
