We used one adult male collected by R. Tidon in Brasilia, Brazil. These specimens were identified as R. bivisualis, but we considered a possibility that the specimens may belong to R. punctulata. The reasons are as follows: (i) specimens of R. punctulata will run to R. bivisualis (cited as Gitona) in two commonly used keys (Wheeler 1949; Wheeler 1952) that include the latter but not the former species. (ii) R. punctulata is most probably endemic to the South American, while R. bivisualis is apparently endemic to the Nearctic Region. Since the sequences used in this study come from a specimen collected in Brazilian Cerrado and identified as R. bivisualis and no further information about its taxonomy is available, we believe it is prudent to account for the possibility that this specimen may belong to R. punctulata. Before the DNA extraction, we made a voucher with the terminalia of the indivdual (V238 - A.B.Carvalho personal collection).
