Remarks
- Systematics: In the general distribution of multilocular disc pores and the type of tubular ducts, this species comes close to N. kerzhneri Danzig, 1972, but differs in: 1) the form of the circulus which is quite large, longer than width, quadrate or hour-glass shaped, whereas the circulus of the latter is small and round; 2) the presence of tubular ducts in median area of thorax on dorsum and venter; 3) the presence of translucent pores on apical part of hind tibia; (4) the distribution of trilocular pores not only in cerarii, but also on lips of ostioles and near spiracles. (Xu & Wu, 2018)
- Structure: In life, the body elongate oval, reddish in colour, covered with thin white mealy wax. Body on microscopic slide elongate oval, sides subparallel, 2.2–3.7 mm long, 0.8–1.7 mm wide. Anal lobes moderately developed, each with ventral surface membranous, bearing an apical seta 150.0–187.5 μm long. Antennae each normally with 7, occasionally with 8 segments. (Xu & Wu, 2018)
