Remarks.
Guţu (1996a)
redescribed this species based on
3 specimens
(
1 female
and
2 males
) from Cabo Frio,
Brazil
, near the
type
locality. He did not illustrate or describe the pleonites as having a pair of lateral plumose and simple setae as in the original description (
Brum, 1978
). The presence of these setae was confirmed in the material that we examined.
