This species was known to Costa Rica, Ecuador and Peru (Azevedo, 1999c), and now it is recorded to the first time to Panama and Brazil (Amazonas, Acre, Rio de Janeiro and Paraná). In this series, tergal processes closer or much more distant, distant each other since 1.0 X their diameters in those cases with large tergal processes up to more than 4 X in those cases with small tergal processes and placed nearly the lateral of tergite, their depressions deeper or virtually absent, tufts conspicuously wider or less dense, their hairs longer or shorter, genitalia with paramere wholly wider or narrower, longer than basiparamere, apex more or less arched inward, ventral margin angulate medially, dorsal margin slightly convex, ventral side of basiparamere not angulate medially, apex of dorsal body of aedeagus thinner than its base, ventral lobes of aedeagus less stout above, dorsal filament shorter, and genital ring slightly more produced medially in some specimens, but in one of them as conspicuous as in species of dumosus group.
