Type locality: Taperinha farm, Santarém , Pará , Brazil . Diagnosis (male). Metepimeron yellow ( Fig. 1 ). Femora entirely yellow ( Fig. 1 ). Tibia I not compressed ( Fig. 1 ). Tarsus I ( Fig. 42 ) brown, except It 1 yellow: It 2 with 2 dorsal bristles at apex; It 3 twice as long as It 4 ; It 4–5 laterally flattened, with It 5 slightly longer than It 4 and with posteroventral row of curved setae. Tarsus II unmodified. Tarsus III ( Fig. 43 ): IIIt 3–4 with posterior and posteroventral rows of setae decreasing in size towards apex. Remarks. Species with “distal joints of male fore tarsus partly compressed, whitish” run to couplet 2 of Robinson’s (1967) key. According to the original description and after examination of photographs of the type (NHMW), that is not the case for P. albipalpus , which has brown fore tarsus. Based on characters listed in couplet 1 of Robinson’s key, we suspect that P. albipalpus and P. latipes were simply switched in the key entries. Material examined. BRAZIL .
