Roughly all the 10th part of the beginning of the second antennal segment is brown. The second segment is mostly black. In the articulation between the second and third antennal segment there is a black ring followed by a brown one. The beginning of the third segment (around 1/3) is black and the remaining portions (2/3) are brown. The articulation between the third and fourth antennal segment is brown. The beginning of the fourth segment is black and the remaining portions are brown with mixes of black (Fig. 2A, C).

sp. n. has a trapezoidal shape and is limited by a brown carina. In the antero posterior direction the pronotum has other two brown carina in the middle portion and six black strips. The three carina and the three brown strips are interspersed with the six black strips, which are larger. The collar (first portion of the pronotum) in the central part is brown and is followed by two (1+1) black glabrous areas and the two (1+1) antero lateral angles. The anterior portion of the pronotum consists of three anterior lobes which are clearly distinct from the posterior portion (hindlobe). Those three anterior lobes are limited by the carina and on each of them there are two black glabrous areas with a lengthy and irregular outline (Fig. 2A, C).

<paragraph pageId="10" pageNumber="11">The mesosternum is limited anteriorly by the prosternum and posteriorly by the metasternum, both limits being brown. The central line dividing two dark brown elevations is also brown. Those two elevations are limited by two (1+ 1) black side glabrous areas diagonally placed. The central region of the posterior limit of the mesosternum has a half-moon shape. The metasternum is brown and resembles an isosceles triangle. Its anterior portion, i.e., its limit with the mesosternum, corresponds to the vertex of the triangle and is narrow, whereas its posterior portion, i.e., its limit with the first abdominal segment, corresponds to the basis of the triangle (Fig. 5C).</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="10" pageNumber="11">The three pairs of coxae are brown, except for the black glabrous areas. The trochanters of the anterior pair of legs are brown, but mixed with black glabrous areas. The middle and posterior pairs of trochanters are brown and have no glabrous areas. The three pairs of femora are black and the same color prevails in the three pairs of tibiae, except in the articulations with the femur and the spongy fossula, which are brown. The spongy fossulae are located in the first and second pairs of legs in the final portion of the tibia, alongside the articulations with the tarsi (Fig. 2A, B, C, D).</paragraph>

The abdomen of
<taxonomicName lsidName="R. taquarussuensis" pageId="10" pageNumber="11" rank="species" species="taquarussuensis">R. taquarussuensis</taxonomicName>
sp. n. presents a brown color in the longitudinal central portion. On the sides of each segment there are (3+3) black glabrous areas, which are mixed with brown and black areas. The connexivum of the dorsal portion lies between the second and seventh segment. For each of those segments the anterior half is black and the posterior one is brown. The dorsal connexivum, also lying between the second and seventh segment, has a black color in 2/3 of the anterior portion, but that black color ends in an irregular way over the remaining 1/3, which is brown. Therefore, the black portion of the connexivum presents two edges moving towards the brown portion: one in the internal limit of the connexivum and the other in the middle portion. However, the connexivum of the second dorsal segment is black in the anterior half and brown in the posterior one, the limit between the portions having a diagonal shape. The seventh segment, on the other hand, is practically all black, except for a small brown strip located in the external posterior half. Type 1 sensilla, which prevail on the head, thorax and abdomen, have a brown color (Fig. 2B, D).

From ventral view, the phallosome (Ph) has a broad plate whose superior region has a trapezoidal shape and occupies the middle region of the aedeagus. The support of the phallosome plate (PrPh) is broad. Conjunctival process I (PrcjI) is present and II (PrcjII) is absent. Endosomal process (En) is well-developed when seen from dorsal and ventral view (Figs 8A, C, 9B).
