Material examined: Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, Restinga de Jurubatiba National Park , sand beach and litter of “restinga” areas; Silveira, T.C. coll. 08/IV/2015 : 6 exs; 15/ V /2015: 25 exs; 19/ VI /2015: 1 ex; 09/VII/2015: 8 exs; 05/IX/2015: 9 exs; 08/X/2015: 14 exs; Xisto , T. coll. 12/XI/2015 : 7 exs; Silveira , T.C. coll. 10/XII/2015 : 3 exs; 12/II/2016: 1 ex. Costa do Sol State Park , sand beach and litter of “restinga” areas; Silveira, T.C. coll. 30/ VI /2015: 9 exs.

Remarks: Pseudachorutes difficilis was found for the first time on littoral areas, from material collected at “Restinga” de Itaipuaçu (Fenandes & Mendonça 2004), and subsequently found in “Restinga” da Marambaia ( Silveira 2014). The presence of this species in both studied parks showed once again its preference to the littoral environment.
