Abstract
The genus Sphaenorhynchus Tschudi, 1838, is currently composed of 14 species, three of which are associated to the Amazon basin. Herein, we report the first record of Sphaenorhynchus carneus for the state of Amapá, district of Ariri, municipality of Macapá, Amapá state. This record represents an increase of its known geographic distribution of approximately 1,085 km northwest from its nearest locality, state of Amazonas.
