Material examined. Paraguay: 1 ♀, [Itapúa], Pirapó, 28–31.xii.1971, L. Peña col. (MZUSP; MZ017905).
Distribution. Paraguay (Itapúa: Pirapó).
Comments. In the most complete key to Merosargus species (James & McFadden 1971), this species keys out as M. pallifrons Curran, 1932b. They both have a similar color pattern on the head, with the upper frons yellow medially and black laterally, legs mostly yellowish, and the presence of brown markings over the abdomen. However, Merosargus sp. 1, differs from M. pallifrons, in having a setose alula and wide brownish maculae over the thorax, forming a three-banded thorax.

Distribution. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Paraguay (likely Asunción: Santísima Trinidad, see Lindner 1928a: 94; without precise locality, see James 1953: 319–320), Uruguay.
Comments. Lindner (1928a: 100) reported this species for Paraguay, followed by James (1953: 319–320), who states that the species is distributed throughout Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and northern and central Argentina, but in the Neotropical catalog (James 1973a: 26.41) and the World catalog of the family (Woodley 2001: 264), Paraguay was not included as part of the distribution of this species.
Aldrich (1928: 2), in the original description of Odontomyia tremolerana, mentioned two paratypes (one male and one female) from Uruguay, of which the male was sent back to Juan Tremoleras in Montevideo, Uruguay, whose collection was later on acquired by the MLPA (Museu de La Plata), where the male is since then deposited (Museu de La Plata 1936; Lagrange 1993: 68). The depositary institution of the female paratype remains unknown.

Odontomyia fiebrigi Lindner, 1976: 1; 2, fig. 1 (female head in lateral and frontal views, and male head in lateral view). Holotype: female (NMW). Type locality: Paraguay, San Bernardino.
References. Woodley, 2001: 274 (cat.).
Material examined. Paraguay: 1 ♀, Cordillera, [Caacupé], Cabañas, 15.ix.2018, Coll. J. Movia (MNHNPY; MNHNP-HX 2056). 1 ♀, Cordillera, Piribebuy, Cruce Piribebuy, Ruta 2, 25.377°S 57.043°W, 20.ii.2016, B. & N. Garcete colls. (MNHNPY; MNHNP-HX 2055).
Distribution. Paraguay (Cordillera: Caacupé: Cabañas, Piribebuy, San Bernardino).
Comments. Of the 16 paratypes (10 males and six females) mentioned in the original description (Lindner 1976: 3), two males and one female are deposited in the SMNS collection and all the remaining paratypes are in the NMW collection.
The additional female herein provided (Fig. 97) is darker than the female paratype (Figs 39–40), particularly in the posterior part of the scutum, where the dark macula reaches the extreme base of the scutellum, and also the new specimen is darker over the abdomen, with dark markings reaching the lateral margins of tergites 2–5. As the leg coloration and the overall color pattern over the head and thorax are the same in the two specimens, we considered these differences in color intensity as an intraspecific variation. The genus Odontomyia Meigen, 1803 is found in all the biogeographic regions and comprises more than 200 species (Woodley 2001, 2009). As the genus was based on a Palearctic species and occur worldwide, the limits of the genus require revision, and the Neotropical species of the genus might be placed somewhere else.

Promeranisa nasuta

description: nasuta (Macquart, 1850) (Fig. 98)
Stratiomyia nasuta Macquart, 1850: 351; plate III, fig. 4 (habitus). Syntypes: 2 males (MNHN). Type locality: Bolivia, Chiquitos (see Fachin et al. 2021: 6 for correction of the type locality).
References. Williston, 1888: 253 (suppl. descr.); James, 1973a: 26.45 (cat.); Woodley, 2001: 289 (cat.); Fachin et al., 2021: 6 (correction of the type locality), 7 (images of the syntypes).
Material examined. Paraguay: 1 ♂, San Pedro, [Estancia] Carumbé, 10.i–10.ii.1973, Col. R. Golbach (MZUSP).
Distribution. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Panama, Paraguay (San Pedro: Estancia Carumbé).
Comments. This male specimen compared to the male syntypes from Bolivia only differ in the size of the semitranslucent areas over the abdomen. The whitish spot on tergites 2–3 is larger in our specimen from Paraguay, while it is slender in one syntype for which a dorsal image is available (Fachin et al. 2021: 7, fig. 1).

description: sp. 1 (Figs 99–100)
Material examined. Paraguay: 1 ♂, Cordillera, Tobatí, Cerro Tobatí, 25.280121°S 57.093134°W, 28–29.i. 2015, 170 masl, B. & N. Garcete coll. (MNHNPY; MNHNP-HX 2086). 1 ♀, San Pedro, Cororo-Rio Ypane, 01–04.xii.1983, Malaise trap, M. Wasbauer coll. (CSCA).
Distribution. Paraguay (Cordillera: Tobatí; San Pedro: Cororo-Rio Ypane).
Comments. This species resembles the two species of Hedriodiscus Enderlein, 1914b: H. pulcher (Wiedemann, 1824) and H. quadrilineatus (Macquart, 1834). According to Woodley (2009), both genera (Hedriodiscus and Psellidotus Rondani, 1863) correspond to a heterogeneous group of species and a revision of their generic limits might place some of their species in other/new genera. Their separation is often based on the presence or absence of the crossvein r–m and in the number of flagellomeres. Hedriodiscus does not have a crossvein r–m, therefore the discal cell is fused to the radial sector, and the antenna is often shorter, with six well-discernible flagellomeres, in which the sixth is clearly slender than the fourth. Psellidotus, on the other hand, has a crossvein r–m and the antenna is a bit longer, with five or six flagellomeres (James & McFadden 1979: 9; Woodley 2009: 534), in which the last two can be indistinctly separated from each other and as wide as the previous flagellomere. Although similar in the overall body color pattern, particularly over the thorax, with H. quadrilineatus (Lagrange 1993: 71, fig. 22), our Psellidotus sp. 1 (Figs 99–100), same as for Psellidotus sp. 2, has a longer antenna, in which the flagellomeres 4–6 or 5–6 (if the fourth is fused to the fifth) are only slightly tapered, without difference in diameter between the last two and the previous flagellomere. Furthermore, both Psellidotus species have a short crossvein r-m and they do not have a developed fronto-facial prominence with the antennae inserted at the apex, as seen in the two species of Hedriodiscus revised by Lagrange (1993).
