Descriptions of adult and immature by Burckhardt et al. (2011).
Fifth instar immature. Antennal segments 3/4 length ratio 1.71–3.33. Forewing pad/ antennal segment 3 length ratio 2.00–2.92. Caudal plate (Fig. 44) narrowly rounded posteriorly, 1.57–2.20 times as wide as long. Distance between anterior and posterior bands of caudal plate smaller than that between posterior band and anus, measured laterally. Circumanal ring very small, transverse diameter about 6–8 times as wide as pore rows on one side, consisting of 3–4 rows.
Measurements (5 specimens, in mm). Length of antennal segment 3 0.85–1.00; forewing pad length 1.75–2.35; caudal plate length 1.00–1.35.
Distribution. Reported from Brazil (Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Paraná) (Burckhardt et al. 2011), from Trinidad (Heslop-Harrison 1961) as Mastigimas ‘ cedrelae type’, and new for Brazil (Mato Grosso, Rio Grande do Sul) as well as Venezuela.
Host plants. Cedrela fissilis Vell. and Toona ciliata M. Roem.; adults have been collected also on C. odorata L. which is a likely host.
Comments. The male specimen mentioned by Heslop-Harrison (1961) as Mastigimas ‘ cedrelae type’ from Trinidad belongs to M. anjosi.
