Abstract

Tipulodes rubriceps Dognin, 1912 was described from Medina in Colombia. Przybyłowicz (2001) redescribes the species and recognizes an Andean distribution, despite citing two localities for Brazil (Mato Grosso and Pará). Przybyłowicz (2003) finds a second record (Cuiabá) for Mato Grosso and considers Brazil as the place of distribution of the species, but does not consider Pará, as he questions this record in 2001.The main objective of this work is to report its rediscovery in Pará and confirm its expansion beyond the Andean region. The record corresponds to two males, one from Santo Antonio [do Tauá] (confirmation of the first record in Pará, presented by Przybyłowicz (2001)) and another from Belterra, recently captured, increasing the known distribution distance to Brazil by approximately 1,800 km to the north.
