Remarks. With 101 ( 77 males and 24 females) specimens collected, this was the most common species of Kempnyia in PECJ. The head and pronotum are shown in Fig. 14 View FIGURES 14 – 18 and the penial armature in Figs. 17–18 View FIGURES 14 – 18 . It was originally described from Eugênio Lefèvre, based on a single male and a putative female. In the collection of the Museum of Zoology I located two females from Eugênio Lefèvre in a vial with alcohol that had dried up and later refilled. Despite being discoloured, they could be recognized as belonging to K. tamoya , and their subgenital plates agreed entirely with those from females from PECJ. As regards the putative female in the original description ( Froehlich 1984), see comments under K. gracilenta . In PECJ, K. tamoya has been collected from September to December, but most fly in November–December (74% in November, 17% in December).
