The species is herein recorded for the first time in Atlantic rain forest area of Paraná State Southern Brazil and shows a wide range distribution in the State (Fig. 4). The new distribution records are compatible with the known wide distribution of the species in South America (Fig. 4). The species is easily recognizable by the very small size (body length 1.0– 2.1 mm), metaventrite with complete femoral lines and the conspicuous male genitalia.For more detailed information on the morphology and illustrations of the species see Smetana (1978) and Arriaga-Varela et al.
