Borgmeiermyia rozeni Arnaud 1963: 12, Figs 1–4, 6–7, 9–10, 15–17 (male and female description, key), holotype male (American Museum of Natural History), type locality: Brazil, Santa Catarina, Nova Teutônia [ca. 27°09'S, 52°18'W].

Borgmeiermyia rozeni; Guimarães 1971: 166 (cat.); Sehnal 1998: 353 (comments).

Type material examined: one paratype male, BRAZIL, State of Santa Catarina, Nova Teutônia, 06.iii.1962, F. Plaumann leg. (MZSP); one paratype male, same locality and collector, 02.v.1959 (BMNH).

Additional material examined: same data as paratypes, but V.1967, 3 males and 2 females (MZSP), III.1971, 2 males (MZSP), IV.1971, 4 males (MZSP), 28.IV.1938, 1 female (BMNH), 01.III.1938, 1 female (BMNH); State of Amazonas, Manaus, 04.XI.1978, 5 males, J.A. Rafael leg. (MZSP) (one male with the terminalia dissected).

Comments: Both male and female described and richly illustrated by Arnaud (1963). Here we present the lateral habitus of a female from Nova Teutônia (Figure 7) and, for detailed observation, the head of the male paratype in profile (Figure 9). The geographical distribution of B. rozeni has been extended northwards with the recognition of 5 male specimens from Manaus (Amazonas). The identification of these specimens was confirmed by comparing the terminalia of a dissected male with the figures of the male terminalia of B. rozeni in Arnaud (1963).

Distribution: BRAZIL (Amazonas rec. n., Santa Catarina).
