Examined material. Brazil, Tocantins, Palmas, Fazenda Encantada, 10°15 ʹ 0 2.6 ʺ S, 048°07 ʹ 23.1 ʺ W, 9–10.xi. 2012, Krolow, T.K. & Lima, H.I.L. leg. (1♀ CEUFT).
Distribution. The genus occurs from Costa Rica to Brazil: Amazonas and Rondônia (Machado and Martins 2018).
New records. Tocantins: Palmas municipality.
Comments. Until now the only species of Haematomantispa known from Brazil is H. amazonica Machado & Rafael, 2010. The unique specimen studied here is a female and probably is a new species, as it does not present the main morphological characters of H. amazonica. We opted not to formally describe this new species because our specimen is a female; the male genitalia provide the most important characters to distinguish species of Haematomantispa. We made many attempts to collected more specimens but all were unsuccessful.
