Remarks
Two specimens dissected by us, from the states of Rondônia and Paraíba (Brazil), are phenotypically similar to the holotype of M. stillatus, differing from the latter only by slight variations of colour pattern on pronotum and elytra. However, as we have no more specimens for comparison, we did not consider those specimens as conspecific with M. stillatus.
