REMARKS: Both species of the genus are recorded for the Amazon region, but R. xavieri is only known from the far west of the region (Fig. 14). In the two examined specimens of R. multiplicata the mesoscutellum is black with yellow gibbous areas, as in the new species (Figs. 3, 6, 9). Female: ocelloccipital and ocellocular distances about 3.0× OD and 2.8× OD, respectively, giving the vertex a noticeably wider aspect in R. multiplicata; S1 with a developed keel occupying the anterior half of the sternum, as in R. xavieri. The examined male matches the description of Urban & Parizoto (2012), except the mandibles are tridentate (Fig. 8) and the clypeus without an evident basal tubercle; T7, S6, and the genital capsule as in figures 11–13.
GEOGRAPHIC RECORDS: Brazil (Amazonas, Pará); French Guiana (Saint-Laurent-duMaroni).
