M. cf. surinamensis ( Herman 1965) .

SURINAME; ♀; “XVIII; Vau k. leg; 8.59 \\ MUSEUM PARIS; 1983; Coll H. COIFFAIT” ; ♀; “VIIIa; Taubahredjo; 6.59 \\ MUSEUM PARIS; 1983; Coll H. COIFFAIT”. MNHN .

Note: Based on observation of the posterior margin of the sternite VIII and IX and comparison with (fig 13. in Herman (1965)) for M. surinamensis and its geographic distribution, we suggest this specimen may correspond to a female of the species M. surinamensis . Sternite VIII has a medial light emargination with a longitudinal depression, while sternite IX has a mid-deep emargination. However, we do not have enough evidence to undoubtedly classify it as conspecific.
