Differential diagnosis: Head black; antennae brown, except antennomeres I-III and VIII-IX, pale yellow; pronotum testaceous with a wide median brown patch; elytra entirely dark brown;males:fore femur swollen,compressed ventrally, without distinct tooth; aedeagus with right prolongation of tegmen broadly projected dorsally; left setiferous prolongation long and slender;right paramere absent; left paramere wider apically; females:ventrite VII short and wide,lateral margins arched, distal margin concave.
Males of M. belemensis differ from the other Amazonian species by the fore femur swollen but without a distinct ventral tooth.
Distribution: Brazil (Amapá, Pará, Amazonas and Mato Grosso states). Macromalthinus belemensis is recorded for the first time in Mato Grosso state ( Fig. 66 View Figures 66-69 ).
