Preservation. All well preserved.
Comments. The original publication reports the deposit of seven paratypes males and 21 paratypes females in the INPA Collection, but only six males and 20 females were deposited. A female was later donated to the Maranhão State University Collection, while the discrepancy in relation to the male was a counting error in the original publication.
