The authors complement the description of Triatoma matsunoi Fernandez-Loayza, 1989 and present the morphology of the male external genitalia, characterized by the presence of conjuntiva process (PrCj) denticulate, basal plate (Eplb) too long and median process pygophore (PrP) showing the apex streched and the surface rugose and scaled. The specimens examined (holotype [male symbol] and allotype [female symbol]) were deposited in the Collection Herman Lent of Triatomines of the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, IOC, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
