Notonectidae Latreille 1802

Notonectidae Comments. Truxal (1953) recorded Buenoa communis Truxal, 1953 from Pará based on specimens collected by A.M. Olalla in “Lago Grande”. The Lago Grande where Olalla collected is in western Amazonas state, not in Pará (Patterson 1992). Due to the lack of other records from the latter state, this species is excluded from the list below. Truxal (1953) also recorded the same species from the state of Paraíba based on specimens collected by Olalla in “João Pessoa, River Juruá”. This locality is near the Lago Grande in western Amazonas state, not in Paraíba (Patterson 1992).
