Deulufeut leg, “M2419”, (1♂, IAvH)” (photographed specimen); “ idem, Vichada, PNN[Parque Nacional Natural] Tuparro, Pie Cerro Tomas, 5º21’N / 67º51’W, 250 m [eters], 22.v.–3.vi.2001, W.

Habitat. The specimens were collected with Malaise traps at ground level in areas of tropical dry forest in the Caribbean region, at the Santuario de Fauna y Flora Los Colorados and Parque Nacional Natural Los Colorados, where the vegetation is composed of gallery forest with low elevation of the canopy from the ground in the Orinoco region of Colombia.
