Examined material. 16♀, 5♁ (see Supplementary Material 1). BRAZIL: 1♁, Amapá, Macapá [MPEG]; 1♀, Pará, Gototire Xingu [MPEG]; 1♀, Mato Grosso, Cáceres [DZUP]; 1♀, Goiás, Jataí [DZUP]; 1♁ (lectotype of Z. aurantiacus), Minas Gerais [ZMHB]; 1♀ (paralectotype of Z. aurantiacus), Minas Gerais [ZMHB]; 1♀, Minas Gerais, Passos [DZUP]; 1♀, Espírito Santo, Nova Almeida [DZUP]; 1♀, Espírito Santo, Conceição da Barra [DZUP]; 6♀, 3♁, São Paulo, Jundiaí [RPSP]; ♀, São Paulo, Barueri [BME]; 2♀, Santa Catarina, Nova Teutônia [BME].
Distribution. Brazil (* Amapá, Pará, Amazonas, Mato Grosso, Goiás, Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, S„o Paulo, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul) (Bohart & Stange 1965, Hermes & K̂hler 2004; and new data).
Observations. A series of specimens from RPSP were collected from trap nests and are smaller in size than other specimens, but other characters easily assign them to this species. Although the nests themselves were not examined, this raises curiosity as known nests from the species group are aerial (Z. miniatus in Ducke 1914; Z. schadei in Bohart & Stange 1965; Z. nodosus in Lopes 2023).
