 Description of female. Subgenital plate light brown, 4-lobed (Fig. 4A); lateral lobes larger than paramedial lobes; sublateral notch deeper than median notch. Sternum 8 and 9 with patches of hair. Egg elongate oval (Fig. 4B), 0.21 x 0.356.   
 Remarks. Righi-Cavallaro & Lecci (2010) described this species from the municipality of Chapadão do Sul, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The penial armature agrees with original description (Righi-Cavallaro & Lecci 2010). However, in lateral view, dorsal portion nearest to the base of the penial armature studied here is concave, but indicated as convex in Righi-Cavallaro & Lecci (2010). Additionally, our specimens differ in size from those of   
 Righi-Cavallaro & Lecci (2010) (male forewing length: 12.2–13.2 mm). This is the first record of A. otafroehlichi from Tocantins State and from northern Brazil.
