( Figure 10 (C))

Record in PNM da Cidade sta. 20, 22 December 2022 [1 spm; piece of foot removed for DNA analysis, but specimen not sampled].

Remarks

Further investigation is needed of the COI divergence (p-distance: 3.6%, for 503 nt) between the present DNA sequence and that from São Paulo city, SE Brazil ( Gomes et al. 2010), to determine whether P. boraceiensis includes more than one species or whether it has a considerable population structure.

Geographic distribution

Brazil: Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná and Santa Catarina states ( Gomes et al. 2010), including the city of Rio de Janeiro ( Rangel et al. 2021).
