This species is sympatric with M. olivieri , and both have a very similar color pattern. However, M. oblonga is easily distinguished from M. olivieri by (characters of M. olivieri given in parenthesis): clypeal apex rugopunctate, with anterior margin strongly raised and subtruncated (Fig. 2A ) (clypeal apex densely punctate, with anterior margin weakly raised and rounded (Fig. 2B )); scutellar shield shorter than elytral suture (longer); internoapical lobe of mesotibia weakly developed and barely defined (Fig. 1H ) (strongly developed and well defined); posterior margin of pygidium narrowly rounded at middle (Fig. 2G ) (evenly rounded). This is the first record of M. oblonga in Brazil (new country record) based on female specimens collected in Amazonas state.
