03BADC104901E114FC3914DBFB3B35E5.taxon	discussion	Remarks: The specimens from Pará, identified as Diochus parvulus, have similar aedeagus (mainly parameres) and spermatheca as those illustrated by Irmler (2017) (Figs. 10 - 14). However, similarly to Diochus santacatarinae, the male of D. parvulus has the sternum VIII with posterior margin emarginate at the middle, whereas the female has the sternum VIII with posterior margin broad curved and slightly acute at the middle. The specimens of D. parvulus were collected using the winkler method in forest litter of pasture for extensive livestock and using pitfalls baited with banana in native vegetation (Fig. 2). Diochus parvulus was previously known from Venezuela, Ecuador, Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil (from the states of Amazonas, Mato Grosso, Rio de Janeiro and Santa Catarina). The species is recorded for the first time from the state of Pará. Diochus cleidecostae Caron & Navarro sp. nov. (Figs. 6, 15 - 17, 20 - 22)	en	Caron, Edilson, Navarro, Bruna V., Cajaiba, Reinaldo L.

03BADC104901E114FC3914DBFB3B35E5.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis: Within Diochus nanus-group, D. cleidecostae Caron & Navarro sp. nov. differs from D. apicipennis Cameron, D. nanus and D. perplexus Cameron by having an aedeagus with clearing trifurcate apex of parameres (parameres bifurcate at the apex in D. apicipennis, D. nanus and D. perplexus), and differs from D. parvulus by having three apical long setae of parameres distributed on ventral and dorsal lobes, and without long setae on medial lobe (one of three apical long setae on medial lobe in D. parvulus).	en	Caron, Edilson, Navarro, Bruna V., Cajaiba, Reinaldo L.
