Marques ( 1♂ CZMA ). Remarks. Type material has been studied by Rafael (1987 , 1988 ), who also redescribed and illustrated E. lindneri . Figures 97–113 included here should enable a better identification of this species. Variations. When compared with the redescription and figures given in Rafael (1987 , 1988 ), the specimens from Maranhão state do not have a S-shaped membranous area (straight instead) and their apex of left surstylus is narrower than the figure 85 of Rafael (1988) . For the time being, these variations are considered as geographical variation. Distribution. Brazil : Maranhão (new record, Cerrado Biome), Mato Grosso, São Paulo; Bolívia , Argentina .
