The arboreal snake Imantodes lentiferus (Cope, 1894) is distributed in lowland rainforests of the Amazon basin and Guiana region , reported from Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Suriname, French Guiana, Guyana, Bolivia, Venezuela, and Brazil. In Brazil it occurs in the north and central-west regions, in the states of Acre, Rondonia, Amazonas, Para, and Mato Grosso. This study reports new records of Imantodes lentiferus from Para and Mato Grosso. These new records fill a large gap in the known distribution of this species.
